Co-authors Gloria Lauris and Allan E. Carty along with illustrator Sarah Woronchak are pleased to share the semi-illustrated version of three middle grade children’s badventure stories in this novelette.
According to JJ’s mom, a blue jay, a badventure is a bad adventure that turns out good in the end. Usually.
“In life there is the plan, and then there is what happens,” said Chippy.
The stories follow the antics of Chippy, the sensible chipmunk and Dash the anxious red squirrel and their backyard animal friends and foes. The importance of community, harmony and friendship is explored in a humorous and suspenseful way.

“The cover is very attractive and foreshadows fun and mystery. The illustrations definitely add to the book and the number of them is just right. The map of the garden works very well for reference along the way and the simplicity of the black and white drawings is perfect. I am curious to find out what badventures happen to these animals! A lovely read for kids and adults alike.”
Helen Rogers, Canadian Visual Artist in AB and ON
