This is one of my favourite books. It is about a twelve year old girl named Amy Applegate and her best friend George who go on an adventure in Malaysian Borneo. In Malaysia borneo they see cockroach filled caves, Poisonous reptiles and two male boars at war. Later on they went to stay with an Orang Ulu tribe there; they eat crickets, water bugs, grasshoppers and cockroaches, learn how to fire darts and find out how to track animals. But where are the proboscis monkeys?

My favourite part is when they go in the cockroach filled caves. I think ages 8, 9, 10, 11 and twelve should read this book. I think this book definetly deserves 5 out of 5.
