Real-life adventure story, facts and experiments for children aged 8-12. In this, the fifth book in this acclaimed series, Wildlife Wong encounters weird and wonderful plants and creatures as he tries to track elusive sun bears in Borneo. Meet frogs that fly, flowers that stink, and ants that can carry their own weight. They are all amazing, but it is the relationship between the gigantic fig tree and the tiny fig wasp that surprises him the most. What do you think Wildlife Wong discovers? After the story, discover amazing facts about the tiny creatures in the rainforest and make your very own mini rainforest.

Australian author (and avid traveller) Sarah Pye met Malaysian Dr Wong Siew Te in 2012. She asked what she could do to help sun bears. He replied, "do what you do best". Those five powerful words sparked a Doctor of Creative Arts degree, an enduring friendship, and many adventures.
