An Awesome Skateboard Ride: A Little Alan Adventure

by Bob Gardiner, Hai Qing Zhang (Translator), Bob Gardiner (Illustrator)

Overview

Alan and Tom are local daredevils. Can they skateboard down Mount Taylor?

In this Little Alan adventure, Alan and Tom discover they need a bit more practice.

'Little Bob' books are true adventures and stories taken from the authors' own experiences or told on behalf of their many friends. Each has its own lesson... though not always the one you would expect. The series celebrates the wonder of ordinary and not-so-ordinary childhood experiences.

This fourth book in the series recounts the story of Alan and Tom and their adventurous skateboard ride. Alan first introduced himself to Bob with a gift of a dozen eggs, and the gift of the gab. They continue to laugh over Alan's childhood exploits.

This is a bilingual Chinese/English version.
