Rio 2: The Junior Novel - ADVISABLE

Loggia, Wendy Rio 2: The Junior Novel. Harper Festival, 2014. $5.99.  Content: G.  

Linda and Tulio spot a wild blue Spix Macaw in the Amazon jungle and so birds Blu and Jewel head into the Amazon to find some more of them. Blu has been a caged bird his entire life and is very uncomfortable being in the wild, but Jewel is from the Amazon and excited to return to her place of birth. Having not seen the movie I can’t say for sure, but I’m confident that this book follows the movie so any Rio fan will likely enjoy this book. It has few black and white illustrations but is easy to read for beginning chapter book readers.

EL - ADVISABLE.  Reviewer: SM
