Really nostalgic experience. I loved the film growing up (I don't think it gets talked about enough), so reading this just reminded me of so much of the stuff that happened. I will say, for a book that included facts about insects and tried to disprove false information, having a maneating rhino... like okay??????? Nevertheless, it was a nice quick read.
