EDRG 3321 author profile for week Oct 22





I pick the book Adventures of Riley Missio to Madagascar written by Amanda Lumry and Laura Hurwitz and illustated by Sarah McIntyre.




This book is about Riley going to Madagascar to find a rare lemur. On her way to finding the lemur she has many little adventures in finding trees called Baobab trees, and hissing cockroaches, mantella frogs. and many more. Once Riley gets back to school he tells of his adventures and how these animals are not found elsewhere in the world and how they are becoming so few. All the kids in the school are around him and all are trying to see his picture and be able to hear the stories. Nice book and colorful pictures.
