A Bear Grylls Adventure 2: The Desert Challenge: by bestselling author and Chief Scout Bear Grylls
Bear Grylls, Emma McCann
The exciting second book in the new young readers series from survival expert and Chief Scout BEAR GRYLLS. Sophie loves activity camp . . . but is terrified of insects. It's so bad that she won't go into the tent on her own, just in case something flies at her, or she steps on a creepie-crawlie. But when she's given a compass by one of the other boys on the campsite, Sophie is magically transported to the desert on an adventure where they're impossible to avoid! With the help of survival expert Bear Grylls as her guide, she will learn how to withstand the extreme temperatures of the desert and how to spot mirages, encounter giant camel spiders, deadly scorpions and snakes . . . but will Sophie overcome her fear of insects back in the real world? And who will she give the compass to next? Each book in this fun new 12-book series from BEAR GRYLLS follows a different child on the outdoor activity camp. Once they are given the magical compass, they meet the inspirational adventurer in an amazing place and learn new skills and facts they can take back with them to their real life.

Lots of life lessons, but the age rating, in my opinion, should be younger than my age.

A girl named Sophie is afraid of creepy-crawlies but other than that, she really enjoys camp. She got trapped in a tent with a big spider and she has a piercing scream.

I liked that it was an adventure, especially when they ate the scorpion. Bear Grylls is the best character because he is really adventurous. I would recommend the book!

I actually think 3 and a half because I have read better Bear Grylls ones. And they are actually one of my favourite.
