Bookroo's summary
When Mr. Bunyip arrives to assist with an ecology project, Liza, Melody, Eddie, and Howie suspect he's more than just a scientist. Could he be an Australian swamp monster with plans for the town swamp? As strange events unfold, the kids must uncover the truth before it's too late. Is their imagination running wild, or is there a real threat lurking in the shadows? Dive into a mystery where the line between myth and reality blurs, and the stakes are as murky as the swamp itself.
From the publisher
