With nothing but your instincts and your trusty Survival Spinner, do you have what it takes to make it out of the jungle alive? Find out in this latest adventure in the thrilling game-in-a-book series, Spin to Survive: Deadly Jungle!

Grandma Beatriz has given you an important mission: discover the fabled Lost City of the Jaguar God so it can be protected and preserved for the future. But lost and alone in the Amazon Rainforest, survival must be your top priority. Play your way through the deadly dangers of the Amazon in a fight for your life, facing off against treacherous river rapids, prowling jaguars, dastardly treasure-hunters and a whole host of hazards that dwell deep in the jungle.

How does it work?

  1. Read the story and decide what course to take.
  2. Place your Survival Spinner (included with this book!) on the circle, then SPIN TO SURVIVE!
  3. Follow the directions to the next stage of your adventure... or your grisly demise!
The exciting story is accompanied by expert survival tips and real-life accounts of people who survived in the wild, against the odds. Learn how to fashion a raft out of balsa wood, identify which fruits are edible and which are poison,and the traditional wisdom of the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.

From bestselling author Emily Hawkins and with spectacular artwork by R. Fresson, children aged 7+ will love playing through this unique choose-your-own-adventure book again and again. Filled with fascinating non-fiction content and with all manner of outcomes awaiting you, Spin to Survive: Deadly Jungle is both a gorgeous reference book and an endlessly replayable adventure.
Once a children’s book editor, Emily Hawkins is now a full-time author. Her work has been featured on the New York Times bestseller list (Oceanology, 2009) as well as winning the Children’s Travel Book of the Year Award (Atlas of Animal Adventures, 2016). Along with her background in children’s non-fiction Emily has a strong interest in myth, folklore and storytelling, and has written several titles in the Lost Atlases and Spin to Survive series (Wide Eyed Editions). In 2020 she wrote A Natural History of Fairies, which has been translated into twelve languages, selling more than 100,000 copies worldwide. R. Fresson makes illustrations that nod to the past. She hand-draws in pen and ink, then colours digitally, inspired by the print processes of early 20th century comics and magazines. Her line-work is lodged in the ligne-claire style, made famous by Hergé, Joost Swarte, Bob de Moor and Theo van den Boogaard among many others. Humour is an important aspect to R. Fresson’s work and she continues to develop a witty practice with a dextrous vintage aesthetic, working with clients including the New York Times, Monocle, The Guardian, GQ and The New Yorker.
