Chaser: An Interplanetary Tale of a Boy and His Dog

By: Scott W. Taylor

Narrated by: Mark Sanderlin

How far would you go to be with your best friend? Would you give up a chance to travel to a new planet? Would you disobey your parent? How important would it be? These questions and others face 12-year-old Kennedy Barnes as he and his dad prepare for an interplanetary mission to Planet X489-B, a mission to bring Earth’s animals to a planet without animals.

Or so they think.

Kennedy must choose to either leave his dog, Chaser, home or try and smuggle him on board. He decides leaving Chaser back on Earth would be too painful, so he figures out a way to bring him along. What follows is a story of strength, deception, harrowing escapes, and painful lessons learned. Join Kennedy, Chaser, and the entire crew of Trinity Base as they travel billions of miles from home on an adventure as big as the universe. You’ll find out how far one boy will go to be with his best friend.

I really liked it! -Age 6

We listened as a family with my oldest son who is 6. He loved it!

"I really liked it. All the monsters, even the one with 20 legs, the crab spiders, were EPIC."

My younger girls liked how the dog ran away from the monsters and his on the ship.

As a mom I felt this book was intelligent and engaging. A good read!

Fun middle-grade space adventure!

Fun, middle-grade, space adventure about the bond between a boy and his dog. Kenny is supposed to go away with his dad on a mission to space and leave Chaser, his dog and best friend, behind. Regardless of his agreement to this he just can’t do it so he figures out a way to sneak Chaser along on the trip with them. Shenanigans and chaos ensue, along with some trouble. Lessons are learned and some other very crazy adventures are had by all. In the end all works out. I definitely think kids will enjoy listening to this audiobook just as I did. The story is captivating as is the narrator. He does a great job engaging the listener.

I would like to thank the author/narrator/publisher for generously providing me with a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an unbiased and honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Great story!

Fun, exciting story! I enjoyed it as much as my son did! I highly recommend it.
