Buy A Book - Save A Cheetah! A portion of the net proceeds from the sales of the book will be donated to the Cheetah Conservation Fund on behalf of The Wild Animal Kids Club. It’s Friday at Safari Park. It’s Park Day! It doesn’t get much better than that. At least until the park bully shows up. She thinks all animal lovers are just a bunch of geeks and nerds, but five kids don’t agree. Together, they decide to create THE WILD ANIMAL KIDS CLUB to learn about endangered animals. But wait! This club is special. This club has a secret and no one can ever…ever find out what they are hiding. But you can! Come join The Wild Animal Kids as they discover a magical secret that will teach them about endangered animals in a way they could have never dreamed of. It’s a secret powered by their imagination and the belief that anything is possible. But will the Wild Animal Kids stand up for what they believe in? Will they finally find the courage to stand up to the park bully? Only…if they believe! Only…if they can find the magic within themselves! Park Day just got a little more interesting! Do your kids love animals? If they do, they are in for a treat. I…AM…CHEETAH! ~The Gift~ is the first book in THE WILD ANIMAL KIDS CLUB series. It’s a series filled with friendship, humor, challenges, a bit of fantasy, and of course, the beauty of some our planet’s most endangered wild creatures. It’s a wonderful chapter book for ages 8-11 and a great story to share with younger readers. Review from Scribendi Editor:”…I loved this! It’s a really strong piece of work that ticks all the boxes: it’s got fantasy, adventure, it’s got a clear moral, it’s got jeopardy and excitement, it’s got overcoming adversity… and all done with an innocent and non-violent tale. Not to mention it educates the audience about animals. It’s clear, it’s fun, and it holds the interest all the way through. Super! What’s not to love here? The characters are strong and individual, the prose is nicely and simply constructed, the narrative is neatly divided into digestible chapters with great cliffhanger endings, and it’s all just a lot of fun!”
