The book I decided to recommend to you is a book in my favorite series. It is called Lion Down and is the fifth book of the Funjungle series. The story is told in first person. The genre of the book is a mystery. The novel is written by Stuart Gibbs in 2019. It is narrated by the main character named Teddy Fitzroy whose parents both work with animals at a zoo outside of San Antonio, Texas. The zoo is called Funjungle and is getting ready for its one year anniversary of when the park opened. Teddy and his friend Summer run into a problem. A celebrity, Lincoln Stone, accuses a mountain lion of killing his dog. Teddy and Summer have to find out who really killed the dog all while also figuring out who poisoned the giraffes at Funjungle. I rate this book a 9.5/10. I think anyone who likes mystery books will find this book an entertaining story. Not only do I recommend this book, I recommend reading the entire series!
