Flight of the Phoenix: Nathaniel Fludd, Beastologist, Book 1 by R L Lafevers

Nathaniel Fludd's life has taken a turn for the worst. With his parents lost at sea, he lands on the doorstep of a distant cousin--the world's last remaining beastologist. Soon Nate is whisked off on his first expedition, to Arabia, where the world's only phoenix prepares to lay its new egg. When disaster strikes, Nate quickly finds himself all alone.
       Will he be able to see the phoenix safely hatched, keep his accidental pet gremlin out of trouble, and rescue his guardian from the Bedouin? If he fails, nothing will stand between the world's mythical creatures and extinction.
Too bad Nate's not the sort of boy who enjoys adventure . . .yet.

"LaFevers (the Theodosia books) gets the Nathanial Fludd, Beastologist series off to a sprightly start with this wry story introducing a 10-year-old orphaned when his parents' airship crashes in the North Pole in 1928.. this quick-paced adventure... should entice kids to return for Nate's next escapade." (Publishers Weekly)"

Since the first time she stepped into a library or a museum, R.L.LaFevers (Robin Lorraine when she's in serious danger) has been enthralled. She's busy trying to keep one step ahead of her two teenage sons when she's not staring longingly at antique artifacts or wallowing in old forgotten literature. She lives in Southern California with her two sons, her husband, and a demonic cat.
