ABOUT THE BOOK

Three young friends stumble into a beautiful miniature world of wildlife and adventure they call Little Africa. But their journey becomes treacherous when they are transformed into miniature beings themselves, encounter a scary witch doctor, fierce native warriors, an angry snake, hungry hyenas, and face the great god of the sky. The trio is hunted, captured and given a quest to prove themselves. They find courage within themselves to overcome danger and preserve the secret magic of Little Africa, while learning valuable lessons about wildlife poaching, theft, protecting the environment, and accepting cultures very different from their own.
