Bigfoot and the Wild Boys — Jenny Pearson

Jo Average takes to the wilderness to track down Bigfoot and become a school legend in this brilliantly funny adventure from Lollie-award-winning author Jenny Pearson.

Joe is tired of being called average and feeling completely forgettable at school. So when he hears that a Bigfoot-like beast has been spotted in some nearby woods, he senses an opportunity. Surely capturing Bigfoot will make him stand out from the crowd and bring him the popularity he longs for?

With no real plan or survival skills, Joe and his best friend Tiago set off on what turns out to be an unforgettably hilarious quest with some very unexpected results!

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
