Chomp

"Wahoo Cray has grown up with a zoo in his backyard - alligators, snakes, rats, monkeys, parrots, but it's his dad who's the unpredictable critter. When his dad takes a job with a reality TV show called 'Expedition Survival', Wahoo figures he'll have to do a bit of wrangling himself to keep his dad from killing the show's inept star Derek Badger, who insists on using real wild animals for his stunts. And Wahoo's acquired a shadow named Tuna, a girl who's sporting a shiner courtesy of her old man and needs a place to hide out. They've only been on location in the Everglades for a day before Derek gets bitten by a bat and goes missing in a storm. Search parties promptly get lost themselves. And Tuna's dad shows up with a gun. It's anyone's guess who will actually survive 'Expedition Survival!'"--Publisher. Suggested level: primary, intermediate, junior secondary.

  • "Wahoo Cray ist quasi im Zoo aufgewachsen, denn sein Vater arbeitet als Tiertrainer. Bei den Crays wimmelt es von Alligatoren, Schlangen und anderen bissigen Kreaturen. Die Tiere hat Wahoo gut im Griff. Echte Biester lauern ganz woanders ... Die Macher der Fake-Realityshow Expedition Überleben! suchen zahme "wilde" Tiere für ihre Everglades-Folge - ein Aufrag wie gemacht für die Crays. Allerdings glaubt Derek Badger, der dümmliche Star der Show, fest an sein falsches Heldenimage. Während er versucht, den Tieren der Crays an die Gurgel zu gehen, muss Wahoo seinen Vater davon abhalten, Derek an die Gurgel zu gehen. Unterstützung bekommt er von dem Mädchen Tuna, Fan der Show und wandelndes Tierlexikon. Doch Tuna hat ein Geheimnis und einen gefährlichen Verfolger. Der taucht ausgerechnet in dem Moment auf, als Derek, von einer Fledermaus gebissen, panisch in die Sümpfe flüchtet, geradewegs in einen gigantischen Sturm ... Wer wird am Ende die Expedition Überleben! überleben? Carl Hiaasen studierte Journalismus und lebt mit seiner Familie in Florida.
