About this listen

A detective in the wild.

Precious Ramotswe gets a very special treat. She gets a trip to visit her Aunty Bee at a safari camp. On her first day in camp, a new lion arrives. But this is no average lion: Teddy is an actor-lion who came with a film crew. When Teddy escapes, Precious and her resourceful new friend Khumo decide to use their detective skills to help track him. They will brave the wilds of the bush - and its hippos and crocodiles - as they try to find where Teddy has gone.

Critic reviews

"Precious’ keen sense of right and wrong will inspire readers; her powers of observation may inspire budding detectives.... The straightforward plot, easy vocabulary and compelling setting make this a perfect step up from early chapter books. That McCall Smith brings a great sense of fun to his prose heightens the appeal." ( Kirkus Reviews)

I feel like I just went for a short trip in the African bush.. It all felt very real and the narration with the Botswanan accents was marvelous! Thank you for a wonderful ride.

What a ride.. Loved it! Great narration.
