Running Wild! (ninja Girl 3)

Running Wild! (Ninja Girl 3) by Anh Do is a fast, funny kids’ adventure that mixes school-day chaos with ninja action and plenty of heart. If your young reader loves graphic novels, illustrated chapter books and laugh-out-loud mishaps, this one’s a treat.

Niki is heading off on a school excursion to the zoo, and Connor is desperate to come along. The snag? Kittens aren’t allowed. Luckily (and slightly unpredictably), Niki’s brilliant new invention transforms Connor into a human, opening the gates to a big day out. But once things start to spiral, it’s up to Ninja Girl and Karate Kitten to think quickly, work together and stop the fun turning into full-blown mayhem.

Perfect for primary school readers who enjoy action, friendship stories, STEM-y inventions and pets with personality.

Add it to the stack and let the wild adventure begin.
