Kill the Big One at Hawkins Bar — Royal T. Honeycutt

The boys are back! And this time they're up against some BIG challenges. In the second book of the Adventures of Buckfart, Seabiscuit, Pedro and the Gang trilogy, a group of teenagers from a small farming community in the Midwest find themselves high in the Trinity Alps, facing challenges beyond their wildest dreams. Buckfart, Seabiscuit, Pedro and the gang head to California, looking for adventure. They leave the Bay area on their uncle's fishing boat and travel north to the harbor of Trinidad, encountering wild weather and a Japanese submarine. Then it's back to Uncle Dominic's mountain ranch, to join the local Indians in their quest for the mystical Firestone. There they come across the elusive and mysterious Bigfoot-called Sasquatch by the native Indians-and upon learning of their discovery, the locals set out to kill the creature. Danger and adventure abound in this exciting installment, and for one of the Tory Forks boys, romance is in the air. Set in the 1940s, Royal T. Honeycutt's trilogy evokes nostalgia for simpler times, while entertaining readers of all ages with the timeless adventuresome spirit of teenagers and their uncanny ability to get into trouble.
