"This is a fun, fast-paced novel that deftly blends a love of (and healthy respect for) animals, a passion for knowledge, clever turns, and the silly, if crass, mentality of a 12-year-old boy. - Common Sense Media
"In this sequel to Belly Up (2010), 12-year-old trouble-magnet Teddy is still living at FunJungle, a massive zoo and amusement park, with his primatologist mother and wildlife photographer father. This thrill-ride of a mystery is chock-full of hijinks for middle-grade sleuths and budding zoologists alike." - Kirkus
