6/12/2023 0 Comments The rumble in the jungleThe book I am reading is Rumble In The Jungle, I think the theme is to overcome your fear and to do what scares you the most to do. When he confronts the villains to save the crystal, he is reunited with his friends. Once he finds the tribe Geronimo is asked to help the tribe retrieve a sacred crystal. After a dinner of piranha soup and alligator tail, Geronimo continues into the pantanal in search of the Bororo tribe and hopefully find his friends. Then he heads to the Iguazu falls, then to Pantanal where he meets a local couple and helps on their fazenda (farm). Geronimo heads to Brasilia where he learns the samba and dances in Carnival. He thinks back to things his friends were telling him about Brazil and heads off to try and find his friends. Geronimo is left alone in a strange country where he doesn't speak the language. Geronimo falls asleep on the plane and when he wakes up, his friends are gone. Geronimo Stilton is enjoying a nice, quiet evening at home when his more adventurous friends burst in and kidnap him and take him to Brazil. The book uses different fonts and colours for certain words, such as large words the reader may not know, onomatopoeia, exclamations, and items relating to Brazil. One of my favourite was a recipe for Manjar Branco, a Brazilian pudding. The book keeps kids engaged with bright pictures and asides. This particular story takes place in Brazil, and not only entertains but teaches readers about Brazil and its culture.
