“Loved this book! Had me hooked all the way to the end! Animal lovers delight!” — Pepper, Goodreads
WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL will captivate anyone who has ever considered a career working with exotic animals, from zookeeper to animal trainer.
AT THIS SCHOOL, EVERY LESSON IS AN ADVENTURE.
Sixteen-year-old Jessica Rainville’s dream of working with exotic animals is about to come true. She’s signed up to spend a summer learning to train and care for tigers, lions, leopards, bears, and elephants at an exotic animal ranch. She will pet tigers, train grizzly bears, ride bareback on elephants, and, despite her best efforts, she will fall in love. But Jessica’s summer at the exotic animal ranch will test her in ways that she never imagined. And just one mistake can mean the difference between life and death.
WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL is a contemporary romantic young adult coming-of-age novel that will appeal to similar audiences as ENDANGERED (by Eliot Schrefer) and KICKED, BITTEN, AND SCRATCHED: LIFE AND LESSONS AT THE WORLD’S PREMIER SCHOOL FOR EXOTIC ANIMAL TRAINERS (by Amy Sutherland). WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL is a perfect gift for animal lovers from teens through adults.
While the characters, places, organizations, programs, businesses, incidents, etc. in WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL are fictional, the author personally experienced nearly every animal interaction in the pages of this novel.
Praise for WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL:
“The author’s experience with animal training is clearly firsthand, lending realism to her descriptions of the main character’s tentative first interactions with bears, tigers, and other beasts that most sane people would only approach from behind a three-inch pane of glass … I was propelled through the book by the risk and wonder of interacting with wild creatures, and there was more to experience with each chapter.” – Pierre, Amazon.com
WILD ANIMAL SCHOOL is available in Kindle ebook and in paperback. Read it FREE with Amazon Prime or Kindle Unlimited.
