Synopsis

Nevermoor meets Keeper of the Lost Cities in the second wondrous adventure in the Unmapped Chronicles fantasy series from bestselling author Abi Elphinstone.

Twins Fox and Fibber are riding on a train through Germany when it plunges into a dark tunnel—and emerges in Jungledrop, one of the Unmapped Kingdoms in charge of controlling the weather in their world. The land is beautiful but perilous, with grizzlebears and gobblequick trees. Together, they must brave the glow-in-the-dark rainforests to find the Forever Fern. Along the way, they learn to work together, see the beauty in the environment around them, and forgive themselves for past mistakes.

About Abi Elphinstone

Abi Elphinstone grew up in Scotland where she spent most of her childhood running wild across the moors, hiding in tree houses and building dens in the woods. After being coaxed out of her tree house, she studied English at Bristol University and then worked as an English teacher in Tanzania, Berkshire and London. She is the bestselling author of the Ember Spark series, Sky Song, Saving Neverland, The Unmapped Chronicles, The Dreamsnatcher trilogy and, for younger readers, The Snow Dragon and The Frost Goblin. When she's not writing, Abi works as a trustee for The Lamp of Lothian, speaks in schools about the transformative power of reading and writing and travels the world looking for her next story. Her latest adventures include living with the Kazakh Eagle Hunters in Mongolia and dog-sledding across the Arctic.

This is the second book in The Unmapped Chronicles series. This series delivers one of my favourite fantasy tropes - the through the wardrobe and down the rabbit hole style of transporting the characters into another world. Once there, a problem occurs that requires solving before returning home beco......more

Believathon: Book 4, CROWN The Unmapped Chronicles are such imaginative books, so much so that I truly have no idea what Abi Elphinstone is going to come up with page-to-page. The type of storytelling really reminds me of Roald Dahl, both in whimsy and in the sense that they feel like twisted fairyta......more

Goodreads review by Alex Gunsean on February 17, 2024

6.9/10 Unlike Casper Tock in the previous book in the Unmapped Chronicles called Rumblestar, twins Fox and Fibber are not initially presented as very nice characters at all. As is often the case with stories by Abi Elphinstone, Jungledrop is a tale of character growth set in a magical, fantastical re......more

Our community members in schools tell us time and again how popular Abi Elphinstone's stories have been in schools among pupils and teachers. Not so long ago, Sky Song whisked readers in upper KS2 away on a magical fantasy adventure through frozen landscapes and last year, Rumblestar landed to intro......more
