Purchasing the books is not mandatory, but helpful if you would like to follow along. ✅Book 3 of the series: When Nature Calls ✅Book 4 of the series: Zombie Swap In this space, children of all abilities can take a break and immerse themselves in a quality book series. Learners of all types, including those who are neurodivergent and/or have an auditory or visual learning style, will find this to be a great opportunity. The books are super entertaining, and any Minecraft fan will LOVE them! They are written from the perspective of a character named Zombie. These books are his diary of the events that happen in his life. Zombie gets himself into all kinds of sticky situations!
