Hunt for the Wild - Book #2. Being in the fourth grade at an elementary school on a small island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean is an adventure in itself. The teacher rides a horse to school and cracks a bullwhip before math class. There's a shave ice stand at the little town across the street, and fun waves to boogie board at the nearby beach. It's all a kid could want. But on the last day of school, the teacher brings in a special guest speaker. Kumu Hanohano tells them about a long lost taro plant from the ancient King's patch that brings super powers. Now, Jack and his friends will stop at nothing to find it. Even if it means battling banshee's, night marchers, and packs of wild boar in the jungle filled valleys behind the town.
