How to Bungle Your Jungle: A Micro June Nash Misadventure by Melissa Banczak

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


View all my reviews

Just read a wee prequel to the “June Nash Misadventures”. It was called How to Bungle Your Jungle by Melissa Banczak. Main character is June Nash, personal assistant to her brother, Dewey, who stars in a reality/nature show.

When Dewey asked June if she wanted to accompany him to Costa Rica, she envisioned beaches. What she got was a jungle filled with creepy crawlies, a thieving monkey, and a precocious child. June can’t leave soon enough, but part of her thinks she just might miss Costa Rica.

Favorite lines:
♦ A monkey was wearing my bra.

Cute, but too short to really get a handle on. Prequel to a series, and fun enough to make me want to read more. Four stars.
