PIPSIE NATURE DETECTIVE: THE LUNCHNAPPER #WIN + Blog Tour




  Pipsie is back in a new adventure - Pipsie Nature Detective: The Lunchnapper. Author Rick DeDonato takes us on an exciting nature scavenger hunt while giving us the mystery of who stole Pipse and her turtle pet's lunch. Along the way we learn about several animals. This is a fun way of incorporating knowledge in an adorable story. The illustrations by Tracy Bishop are adorable and fit the story well. We really enjoyed this book and it is a perfect addition to our spring time walks because it encourages my five year old to be on the look out for birds, animal tracks and even animals spottings! 

 

 

 

 About:



Pipsie and her turtle friend, Alfred, are on the best school trip ever—a nature scavenger hunt! The team who finds “Seven Wonders of Nature” first wins. But that isn’t all Pipsie and Alfred have to find. Someone has stolen their PB&Js!
The search is on for the lunch that left, and soon Pipsie and Alfred are following animal tracks and discovering deer, birds, and even some beavers. Can Pipsie make this mystery history and finish the scavenger hunt? And hopefully before lunchtime, because Alfred is one hungry turtle!
