Buckle up for adventures in the jungles of Congo with boarding school kid, Sam! Hold on tight because 5th grade for Sam includes a run-in with a highly venomous green mamba, a runaway horse, a heart-pounding close call on his dirt bike, and an angry mama pig. His biggest challenge, however, has nothing to do with snakes or pigs. Sam’s greatest challenge is his new roommate, Jordan. Jordan is making 5th grade impossible. He’s loud, messy, and he ignores Sam. When Sam realizes there may be more to the story, will he decide to keep his distance or give his roommate a chance? What kids are saying: “I really loved how the descriptions made me feel like I was with them throughout their adventures! After reading this book I would really like to learn how to ride a dirt bike!” - Eliana, age 11 “This book was really great! I could really relate to my own life as a missionary kid and all the adventures I’ve had!” - Kora , age 10
