INTERMEDIATE FICTION
London, C. Alexander

We Dine with Cannibals

(3) 4-6 Accidental Adventure series. Illustrated by Jonny Duddle. In their second story, couch potatoes Oliver and Celia Navel take a trip to the Amazon (with a reality TV star) to find their missing explorer parents and the Lost Library of Alexandria. Despite a questionable cover and title, London consistently subverts stereotypes (spoiler: the cannibals aren't cannibals). His reluctant heroes are resourceful and engaging, their adventures well-paced and perilous.
