Jack and the Wild Life

(3) 4-6 Berenson Schemes series. Illustrated by Ivica Stevanovic. Jack's scatterbrained parents convince him to go to Kenya for their latest moneymaking scheme: a camp in Kenya "where tourists can live like a real Maasao tribe!" (Wild). Next, they drag him to Nepal to start their own religion (Helm). Per usual, Jack survives various dangers, no thanks to his dizzy parents. Caricaturish illustrations add to the humor of these second and third series books. Review covers these Berenson Schemes titles: Jack and the Wild Life and Jack at the Helm.
