"Outdoorsman and author Jeff Alt has "hit another home run" with the newest addition to his The Adventures of Bubba Jones book series. In previous adventure stories, Alt's characters "Bubba" Jones and sister Jenny "Hug-A-Bug" have taken readers on magical visits to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Shenandoah National Park, and Acadia, and now his adventurous explorers visit one of the most iconic of all our national parks, Grand Canyon. In Alt's new adventure, readers can feel the desert wind blowing off the Coconino Sandstone, feel the swish and power of the Colorado River as it roars through the Inner Gorge, feel the presence and mystery of the Puebloans and the "ancient ones" who lived in the canyon in prehistory, and discover the grandiose drama of geology and erosion that created this wonder of the world. The Adventures of Bubba Jones--Time Traveling Through Grand Canyon National Park follows in the footsteps of Alt's earlier books and will provide young readers with a magical adventure in the one and only 'Grand Canyon'." --Arthur McDade, National Park ranger (ret.), and the author of Old Smoky Mountain Days , The Natural Arches of the Big South Fork , and a contributor to The Encyclopedia of Appalachia "The fourth book in this great award-winning National Park series brings yet more of the excitement, adventures, and history we've come to enjoy. Time travel, secret codes, passwords, and discoveries are unraveled first hand by Bubba Jones and his sister Hug-a-Bug. Traveling through time, they experience the wonders, dangers, and people that forged the world as we know it today.
Truly a great story that will teach with enthusiasm. Sure to hold interest with its easy conversational tone. It draws and engages the reader." --Story Monsters Ink "Together they are at the helm of their educational adventure, distant historical events made easier to grasp through these character's eyes. This is a book that drums up awe and fascination, fuels dreams of a Grand Canyon hike one day, and inspires young audiences to keep reading. What a joy it would have been for those of us who grew up 20 years ago to have a Bubba Jones of our own. Alt's national park series will hold steadfast for generations[.]" --Svea Conrad, Arizona Daily Sun.
