Jin's Great Escape
Written by Maria Artho, Illustrated by Christine Luiten.
Jin's Great Escape is the true story of a feisty little otter who escaped from the Auckland Zoo. For several weeks, New Zealand was gripped by otter fever as Jin was spotted in the suburbs, on beaches, and on islands in the Hauraki Gulf. The mischievous little otter made world news and captured the hearts of a nation.
