Meerkat
Mail
by Emily Gravett
Kids Wings Award Book
When
Sunny Meerkat who lives in the Kalahari Desert decides to
go on a vacation to find the perfect place to live...you
know, some place that isn't so crowded with family: the
PERFECT place to live. So, he leaves a note that says he
has set off to stay with his Mongoose relatives, but he
promises to write. And WRITE he does! From Uncle Bob's home
he writes a post card featuring the African Red Hornbill
that warns the mongoose family of danger. You can actually
flip over the postcard and read his funny letter to his
meerkat family. Unfortunately Sunny is just too big to fit
into their hiding places.
Next,
Sonny goes to stay with his cousins Scratchand Mitch who
live in a termite mound. From there he writes another post
card before the itching gets to ticklish for him and he
moves to cousin Edward's home on the farm.
You
can follow Sunny's quest for the perfect home through his
emails that are included in his book: Meerkat
Mail. Can you guess where he finds the perfect home?
You
can be sure that you'll want to write some post cards yourself
after you finish Sunny's story!
