Jasper the squirrel is always ready for an adventure, especially when it’s with his best friends: Luna, a wise-beyond-her-years owl, and Barnaby, a clumsy (and constantly hungry) bear cub. Their latest discovery is the perfect secret spot: a steamy, colorful geyser basin, humming with a strange, warm energy. They can't wait to explore the bubbling mud pots, see the shimmering turquoise pools, smell the strange, rotten-egg scent of sulfur, and feel the warm, vibrating ground beneath their paws. The ground feels like a giant, purring cat! But the purring soon turns into a growl. The ground starts to do more than just vibrate... it wobbles. The steam vents hiss like angry snakes.

The mud pots begin to SPLAT and GLOOP, bursting like thick, stinky soup and covering Barnaby in hot, sticky muck! Worst of all, the mighty Old Faithful, a geyser that’s usually calm and predictable, lets out a terrifying roar, shaking the very bones of the earth. Their fun-filled exploration has suddenly turned into a sizzling-hot race for survival! The entire basin is a ticking time bomb, and it's about to erupt! Can these three brave friends stick together as they tiptoe across slippery, rainbow-colored terraces? Can they dodge scalding-hot water, survive a shortcut through choking sulfur fumes, and make a terrifying last-minute leap across a fiery crack in the earth? Join Jasper, Luna, and Barnaby on a thrilling, heart-pounding adventure that's bubbling with danger and steaming with excitement. The Great Geyser Escape is a fun, sensory-filled story of bravery, teamwork, and a very, very close call!
