It’s a confident start for new chapter-book readers who enjoy character-driven humor, heartwarming moments, and a hopeful message about turning a dream into reality.
Hotel Flamingo: Fabulous Feast: The hotel awakens with a plan to rouse the town by hosting a grand culinary event.

Delicious dishes, friendly competition, and a celebration of teamwork propel the story forward, reinforcing that listening, adapting, and collaborating can transform a quiet hotel into a vibrant gathering place. With bright illustrations and accessible text, Fabulous Feast invites readers to empathize with characters, cheer for the underdog, and discover that food can bring a community together in surprising ways.
Hotel Flamingo: Carnival Caper: Autumn arrives with a carnival atmosphere, and Hotel Flamingo aims for top prize as floats and parades fill Animal Boulevard.
