Field Trip to the Taiga

Wimpy Kid and Dork Diaries meet the world of Minecraft in this illustrated adventure!

Did someone say “field trip”? Gerald is all in! He’d much rather be exploring the Taiga than sleeping through science class. His buddy Sam is all about spotting polar bears, but Gerald is having way too much fun building igloos and snow golems.

His science teacher says there are only two rules—learn something every day and stay with the group. (That’s adult speak for, “don’t get lost.”) When Gerald discovers a secret trapdoor in an igloo, he doesn’t exactly get lost. But . . . if he’s not careful, his classmates might just lose him!

Greyson Mann is the author of the Secrets of an Overworld Survivor series from Sky Pony Press. He kept diaries like Gerald's when he was a middle schooler. He kept right on writing through high school and college and now creates books for kids from his home in Madison, Wisconsin. Greyson enjoys playing Minecraft with his nephew, sometimes writes bad rap songs, and hangs out with his three sisters, whom he now adores.
