In this hysterical #1 New York Times bestseller, one kid has to
wrangle gators, snakes, bats that bite, and a reality show host gone
rogue! This is Carl Hiaasen's Florida—where the creatures are wild
and the people are wilder! When Wahoo Cray’s dad—a
professional animal wrangler—takes a job with a reality TV show
called Expedition Survival!, Wahoo figures he'll have to do a bit
of wrangling himself to keep his father from killing Derek Badger, the
show's inept and egotistical star. But the job keeps getting more
complicated: Derek Badger insists on using wild animals for his
stunts; and Wahoo's acquired a shadow named Tuna—a girl who's
sporting a shiner courtesy of her father and needs a place to hide
out. They've only been on location in the Everglades for a day
before Derek gets bitten by a bat and goes missing in a storm. Search
parties head out and promptly get lost themselves. And then Tuna's dad
shows up with a gun . . . It's anyone's guess who
will actually survive Expedition Survival. . . “Only in
Florida—and in the fiction of its native son Carl Hiaasen—does a
dead iguana fall from a palm tree and kill somebody.” —New York
Post “Chomp is a delightful laugh-out-loud sendup of the
surreality of TV that will be enjoyed by readers of all ages.”
