We Are Not Eaten by Yaks

(4) 4-6 Accidental Adventure series. The book's promising premise--TV-addicted, junk-food-eating offspring of famous explorer parents are dragged into a Tibetan adventure--turns into a string of cliffhangers decorated with quips, comical names, one-liners, and absurdities, some genuinely witty and satirical and others unfortunately based on an "aren't foreigners funny?" worldview. The best jokes get lost in the noise; still, there's some appeal in the uneven offering.
