Summary
An orphan who serves in his great uncle\'s house as a servant sets out on an action packed quest through the wilds of Africa with only a dog and a talking chameleon. The things he encounters along the way will keep the pages turning. The things he discovers will both make you angry and warm your heart. This is an amazing book! I can\'t wait to read it to my grandchildren. I actually learned several things about Africa that I did not know.
There is a bit of violence in the book but it is not too gruesome.
