Georgie's Nighttime Adventure
by April L. Kameka


“Georgie, why are you looking for something more?” “Mama, there’s a whole world for us to explore!” Tonight, Georgie Gorilla is having trouble going to sleep. Have you ever had trouble falling asleep? Georgie’s curiosity is keeping him awake. It’s a noisy night in the African forest and he is wondering who or what is making all the noise? After sunset, Georgie sets off on his own adventure. He is about to learn a whole lot about nocturnal animals, both quiet and loud. The nighttime jungle isn’t like the daytime one that Georgie knows. Will there be big trouble for little Georgie? Georgie’s Nighttime Adventure is the first book in the Georgie & Friends Series, where kids can increase their vocabulary through clear, bolded parts of speech (e.g., verbs) while meeting relatable characters, and laughing along with the silly antics and unexpected happenings. This way parents and educators alike, can help young readers improve language skills as they experience the joy of reading.
