What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Wendell and Floyd have a problem. Hard as they try, they can’t seem to get to school on time. So one morning Wendell comes up with a solution–a shortcut so secret that only he knows about it. At first, Wendell’s shortcut is simple enough. But soon both boys are lost in a wild jungle full of quicksand, monkeys, and crocodiles! Who would have thought that getting to school could be such an adventure.
