Tyrannosaurus Wrecks (FunJungle)
By Stuart Gibbs
How do you drag a 500-pound dinosaur skull through the mud on a rainy day? Does that sound even remotely possible? Teddy is asked to investigate a mysterious crime on his friend Sage's Farm: a thief stole a dinosaur skull, seemingly without a trace! How could someone do it? Sage asks Teddy to figure out the impossible crime. If he doesn't Sage may lose his ranch! Also, the local police think that Summer's dad, J.J McCracken, stole the bones, and if Teddy fails, FunJungle might be shut down! I like how every FunJungle book talks about an issue about animals, like habitat destruction, or the illegal pet trade. I recommend this book to animal lovers.
