Bookroo's summary

Oliver and Celia Navel's plans for a TV-filled school year are dashed when their mother disappears searching for El Dorado. Forced into the Amazon jungle, the twins must use their reality TV skills to navigate ancient ruins, treacherous rapids, and swarms of fire ants. With danger lurking and time ticking, can they outsmart the villains and find their mother before their favorite shows start? Adventure and mystery await in the heart of the jungle.

From the publisher

Oliver and Celia Navel have suffered through a whole summer exploring with their father’s nemesis Sir Edmund, and are ready to begin a new school year glued to the TV. But when their mother vanishes (again) in search of the Lost City of Gold: El Dorado, the twins must trek from the ruins of ancient temples through the shadowy forests of the Amazon. This time, they’ll need all their reality TV survival skills to brave raging river rapids, furious fire ants, and a most unusual jungle feast. Worst of all, if they can’t outsmart the bad guys, they’re going to miss all their favorite television shows!
