Yeti and the Great Trek

This is a children's book about a race across South Africa to commemorate the Lion King's 40th birthday. Four children are invited to compete in the race and are also encouraged to invite special foreign guests to participate as part of their individual teams. Some really strange guests are invited, including Yeti (also known as the Abominable Snowman) from his kingdom in the foothills of the Himalayas. This is a hilarious, action-filled story that will teach a bit of history and introduce young readers to unforgettable characters in this vast, wonderful and friendly land.
