The Clarksville zoo is not
your normal everyday zoo, hidden in its bowels is a secret zoo protected by a
secret society. During the day Noah, Megan, Richie and Ella attend the nearby
Clarksville Elementary School while under the guise of volunteering at the zoo,
they serve as Scouts for the secret society. The return of the shadowist,
DeGraff, someone intent on a path of destruction with the help of his sasquatch
army, has everyone high alert. DeGraff uses the shadows and fog to elude
capture until Halloween night when he leads the Scouts and their new allies,
the four teen Descenders, on a spine tingling chase through the secret zoo
right into the middle of Clarksville Elementary. Here the children make their
last stand using their costume
accessories to battle the sasquatches – a fake sword, an ink squirt pen and a
special key. Their beloved animal friends, Blizzard the polar bear and Little
Bighorn the rhino add their talent to the mix. DeGraff uses his shadow skills
to escape leaving the school looking like a war zone. The fourth installment in the Secret
Zoo series builds on the close friendship of the scouts and their
bond with the wonderful animals of the secret
zoo. There’s plenty of mystery and clues to be followed. This is an
action packed animal fantasy series sure to appeal to young readers. Recommend to
fans of the Warriors series by Erin Hunter. (This book provided for review by children's lit - www.childrenslit.com)
