Description

Dig into this four-novella eBook box set of Pedro the Water Dog Saves the Planet Primers 1, 2, 3 and 4! Pedro the Water Dog Saves the Planet Primers are read-in-an-afternoon novella-length environmental, climate fiction adventures, filled with lovable, quirky characters in a candy wrapper of laughter, irreverence, kisses, friendship, satire, mountain bike jumps, fishing, love, and magnificent scenic beauty.

One More Year: Set in an idyllic northwest lake town, a young woman, Tilly, sets out to tackle an Ironman for an environmental cause, in order to convince people to buy less stuff. She doesn’t know all three sports so she relies on a curmudgeon former cyclist, her irreverent tattooed, tequila-drinking best-friend, a water dog, a group of maverick mountain bike guys and an old pirate to overcome her obstacles and to save the town.

Plastic Plankton: Volcanoes and tropical waterfalls on the Big Island of Hawaii are the dramatic, stunning backdrop as Tilly trains for the Kona Ironman for an environmental cause. Concerned about plastic pollution, her estranged brother, Moore, and his quirky, stoner hip hop-loving best friend, Spit, set sail to the plastic scoop up machine at the Great Plastic Garbage Patch off the coast of Hawaii. Nemesis SodaCo has falsified the machine’s results, and it takes a spunky insider, an old French sailor, the Sandglass bike-surfer dudes, a large lovable Hawaiian, and a cape-wearing pug hero named Plastic, to slow the tsunami of ocean plastic and save the day.

Bike Rock: Realizing the only way to end fossil fuels is to get rid of cars, best-friend athletes Tilly and Camas write a manifesto for their bicycle ride across the country, The Great Petal Pedal Ride. The elders of Burning Man are called upon, having just kicked cars out of the playa, and the mayor of Netherland bike mecca, Utrecht. Add an ominous monopoly of oil barons, an elegant, musical, starlet riding for the cause on Route 66, a glacier wedding proposal, and the beloved cast of quirky, irreverent, humorous friends on the Great Ride to a bike-first car-out world.

Copper Cobra: Two hip-hop-loving best friends work a salmon season in Alaska and, with the help of a humorous, sexy social-media vlogger and a 106-year-old pot-smoking resort matron, uncover a back-room side deal and unscrupulous dealings of a sinister lobbyist to thwart the poisonous acid runoff of an evil mine to save the largest wild salmon run in the world.

“In these wonderful stories, Kalfsbeek addresses important environmental issues through the loving, gentle hands of a cast of characters that are easy to connect with. One wants to be part of this healthy gang; it is easy to fall in love with one or two of them. She has found an avenue to address these critical issues that must be talked about but without a heavy hammer. A delightful read that will fill you with hope and a forgotten bounce in your step or pedal.”

—Chris White, author of Wind, Waves and a Suicidal Boat
