While it’s great fun sipping Juneberry swirl punch and watching bright stickies wave from a spinning globe, Booker T. Bear and his best friend, Dahlya Dragonfly, quickly become bored. Booker suggests they travel to see the Cubs play, but Dahlya doesn’t agree. She reminds Booker that he “is” a cub and he’s seen lots of ballgames. She insists on an exotic adventure.
In this second adventurous book, Booker puts on his Jet-Away jacket and says the magic verse that transports them to a spectacular location far across the globe: a tropical mountain rainforest. They open their eyes to a village of beasts led by a powerfully proud and commanding king—until his cute and infectiously funny young daughter swings in.
Amara is ready for a jungle party in honor of their two guests, Booker and Dahlya. But will her silly antics and pleading to her “Poppie” save the day? Will the mighty King Moyo welcome their guests to stay and play?
Bright-eyed and precocious, Amara excitedly sings out an invitation to creatures near and far. Booker and Dahlya wonder what creatures will be brave enough to come to a jungle buffet at the fierce king’s table? What strange foods will Booker and Dahlya eat? What wild creatures will they meet?
