Kid reporter Scoop Jackson asks readers to consider what is fake news and what is fact, while looking for the gnus -- pronounced nooz -- that have escaped from their pen at the zoo.

The gnu pen is empty! So where are the gnus? There are many different clues to follow, and it's up to Scoop to decide if the evidence he hears and sees is true ... or not! Someone tells Scoop they saw the gnus eating ice cream in Central Park. But this news site says they're climbing the Empire State Building. And here's a photo showing the gnus at a dairy farm. Can all of these sources be real gnus? Or are they fake gnus? Scoop reminds us that a fact is something that can be proven to be true. With every new source, Scoop always checks the facts!

This tongue-in-cheek introduction to fake news asks kids to think critically about what they see and hear from media sources. The book includes a quiz and an author's note that touches on AI and expands on the concept of reputable sources.
