Book Description

Nov 15 2011 An Accidental Adventure (Book 2)
When we last saw Oliver and Celia Navel, they had fallen into the clutches of Sir Edmund S. Titheltorpe-Schmidt III and were doomed to spend their entire summer vacation doing his deadly bidding.

In their second unwanted adventure, We Dine with Cannibals, Oliver and Celia will travel from the ruins of ancient temples to the shadowy forests of the Amazon. They'll need all their reality TV survival skills when they ride a llama, race the rapids, and even fly an airplane! If that's not enough excitement for you (it is decidedly too much excitement for Oliver and Celia Navel), they'll be forced to learn the proper etiquette for a cannibal feast and confront the strangest and most brutal rite of passage ever devised by human imagination: dodgeball.

The second installment of the Accidental Adventures series is just as funny, just as exciting, and just as kid-friendly as the first.

5.0 out of 5 stars Did you like the 1st Accidental Adventures book? It doesn't matter - you will love this one! Nov 29 2011
By Natalie R. Robin - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
When last we saw the Navel twins they had avoided being eaten by yaks. In this book, we must face cannibals ... and much much worse! Hilarious, heartfelt (at least when it comes to the wistfulness of loving television) and heart-stoppingly tense at times. We meet new heroes and new villains and we laugh the whole way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Book for Kids (and Adults) Nov 29 2011
By Dimitri - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I picked up the book to read Sunday night and I couldn't put it down, wound up getting no sleep and finishing it by the next night. The book reads with a fast pace; there's seldom a moment when there's not a bit of action coming. The story also operates as a mystery, leaving little clues as it goes and resulting in surprises as the book progresses. This is an excellent follow-up to the first book. It doesn't read as a second chapter, but stands alone and develops new and different tropes rather than repeating anything from the (excellent) first volume. Recommended for kids and recommended for anyone who likes children's literature. Five stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Accidental? Maybe. Amazing? Definitely. Mar 22 2012
By Matthue Roth - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Equal parts funny, clever, and terrifying, "We Dine with Cannibals" is probably the only book I'd ever consider getting for a pre-teen that has the word "Cannibal" in the title. (That includes any Fine Young Cannibals album, by the way.)

The books in the Accidental Adventures series--this is the second--tell the story of identical twins, who, as the title intimates, would much rather be watching adventure shows on TV than going on adventures themselves. But that wouldn't be nearly as much fun, and it wouldn't be an Accidental Adventure, where everything that can go wrong most often does.

Bad for the twins, good for us. Almost every detail about this book is likeable, from the unexpected sidekick of a poisonous lizard who's almost always in the wrong place at the wrong time to the twins themselves, whose prodigious knowledge serves them well in unexpected situations. After yet another perilous situation is avoided because of some esoteric fact from a reality TV dancing program, you might find yourself wondering whether you should watch some "Jersey Shore" yourself. Don't. Read this book instead. It will make you laugh more, and you'll feel good about it, too.
