Find out how Eliza Thornberry got her amazing secret gift to talk to animals in the first story of this bind-up. When Eliza rescues a trapped warthog in the african jungle she breaks a spell turning the animal back into a man. The shaman grants Eliza a wish. Thrilled at being able to talk to her new friend Darwin, the chimp, Eliza rushes back to camp to tell her family. Once there she soon realises that she can no longer talk to humans ∼ only animals! And the one person who is responsible for granting her wish has disappeared! Will her family ever understand her again? In Family Face-Off the Thornberrys are in the Galapagoes Islands where rival filmmakers have challenged them to a race to see who can be the first to trace Charles Darwin's original route. Can Eliza and her family win the race without having to play tricks?
