Join Katy, Cassie, Zia and their new friend Luca on a series of amazing adventures as they work together to save the planet When Cassie's cousin Luca joins the girls' school, they have the perfect idea to make him feel included: invite him to a magical playdate adventure. Together with Thunder the cat, they decide to go on a wild journey to the African savannah in their very own flying safari truck. But when they arrive, the animals are in a frenzy. The watering holes are drying up and soon there wont be anything left for them to drink! Luca has an idea that might just save the day but will the friends be able to pull it off
A great read for 5 to 8 year olds, book 5 in the series but read perfectly well in isolation [there is] a touch of magic and a great nod to environmental matters to spark a discussion about the difference an individuals actions can make.Very happy to recommend this to families and schools.
