Amazon Adventure begins with dad John Hunt taking his two boys Hal and Roger on an expedition to the uncharted Amazon to collect wild animals for sale to zoos. In a Blyton-esque twist Mr Hunt gets called away half way through as there is a mysterious arson attack at their Florida property. Therefore their very livelihood depends on the boys' success.
Danger lurks at every turn with the gang who destroyed their ranch in hot pursuit, wild animals everywhere and obtrusive natives the boys have to survive on their wits.
Mr Hunt promises them a trip to the South Seas if they are successful.
These books contain everything for youngsters, thrills, adventure, learning about different animals.
I feel this one was quite light, I remember as a youngster liking some of the later adventures more such as Gorilla or Lion adventure. But a good start for the series none the less.
PS I had thought I owned the whole series, but it turns out I am missing one or two including the next in the series, South Sea Adventure.
Also missing Whale Adventure and Arctic Adventure.
reviews for all the others to follow in due course. ( )
