Synopsis

The enchanting story of a curious cat who gets lost on a camping trip and discovers local wildlife on his long journey home.

Huxley the cat lives on a houseboat with his human companion, Robin. One day, while they are camping, Huxley gets lost. To get home, he must cross an entire island--passing by and through lakes, rivers, rainforest, subalpine and alpine regions, old-growth forest, ocean, highways, and city. Along the way, he meets strange animals and encounters plants he has never seen before. All through this long, hard trip, Huxley never gives up on getting home to Robin. But will he make it home before the winter storm season?

Huxley's Island Adventure celebrates the natural environment of Vancouver Island and the Pacific Northwest through the eyes of one very adventurous cat. Through vivid illustrations full of fascinating details, this story introduces children the region's plants and animals in a fun, engaging way.
