New sub-series: Adventures in the Savannah
„THE SECRET LIFE OF ANIMALS” is the new realistic children's book series for readers aged 8 and up, divided into different subseries, sorted by the Earth's habitats. Each series features exciting fiction about animals and their environment, with each of the four volumes in each sub-series focusing on a different animal in a certain environment (Ocean, Forest, Savannah). Each book can be read independently.
What happens in SAVANNAH, Vol. 1:
Roars sound in the savannah - lion king Akida defends the huge territory on the riverbank. It is the dry season in the savannah, prey animals are scarce, and the river pack is plagued by hunger - a feeling that lion cub Nuru feels for the first time.
But soon the Great Migration will take place in the savannah, during which numerous wildebeests and zebras will migrate through the Serengeti. Nuru sneaks off to look for this miracle - just like the hyena girl Lela. Lions and hyenas are enemies to the death, and Nuru and Lela challenge each other and fight when they meet - but the enmity fades a little more with each encounter.
One day, the two observe two foreign lions in their territory. Panic breaks out: The strangers could challenge King Akida to a fight, and King Akida is no longer the strongest lion, for time and many battles have scarred him. A change of ruler could end terribly for Nuru and the other cubs.
The foreign lions Musa and Hasani actually attack - and instead of protecting his pack, King Akida cowardly takes flight. The lionesses Salama, Oyana and Penda are left on their own and must keep the lion cubs hidden. Out of nowhere, the "nasty" hyenas appear. Together with the lionesses, they defend the territory and put the strange lions to flight.
