Would you buy my book with this back cover blurb if you are 9-12 or a parent of a kid that age?

After five years of misery in an all-girls orphanage with only one friend, twelve-year-old Alyssa Norris discovers her new power to make animals speak. When a zoo truck stops near the orphanage, a monkey invites her to escape to Africa to live with a family. Alyssa agrees to go, flees Canada, and arrives in Tanzania, where she meets the family. After she disobeys a demand, the family punishes her and temporarily leaves Alyssa all alone. Luckily, a friendly cheetah suggests a tour of the landscape. Alyssa agrees and encounters many intense, risky, and wild surprises with the zoo truck animals.
