The rainforest holds a frog with a secret to staying young forever, and Jessica and Renata know they must find and save it first! Together with Briony-Rose, the girls journey deeper into the rainforest. Danger and betrayal lurk in every corner, and soon they're running for their lives, dodging blow darts and falling into traps. Will the children make it out of the forest alive?<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Johnson, Mitch<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>London : Orion, 2024.<br />275 pages ; 20 cm<br /><br />Stroud (SD) - (Gloucestershire) - Older Junior Fiction - JF Adventure & Mystery Stories / Paperback - Non-reservable (Set: 15 Mar 2024) - Onloan - Due: 23 May 2024 - 9960281159<br />
