Zoobreak

The characters from Gordon Korman’s Swindle are back in Zoobreak, a novel about children fighting for animal rights.  When the kids visit a floating zoo, they discover that the animals are living in deplorable conditions and decide to break out the animals and bring them to another zoo.  A subplot featuring the disappearance of a main character’s pet monkey  brings excitement to the story.
This moving, yet funny story is recommended for 5^th grade and up, and younger for reading aloud.
