"The Adventures of Spunky and Dunky and Buddy Bear: Rescued at Last". "The Adventures of Spunky and Dunky and Buddy Bear" chronicles the story of two little monkeys whose parents were taken away by poachers in the jungles of Africa. Fortunately a kind bear heard about their predicament and set out to find them. The story unfolds as Buddy Bear rescues Spunky and Dunky and takes them back to live with him in his log cabin by a lake in the woods of Canada. As most of us know, monkeys are quite different from bears and humans. The two monkeys struggle with all the changes they have to make in their new home. Living in Canada was very different from their old home in the jungles of Africa. Even Buddy Bear was different. He was a unique bear, one we might call a "philanthropist." He did much more than roam through the woods looking for berries. Buddy Bear spent his days helping people in trouble. It did not take long for Spunky and Dunky to realize that they had little choice but to follow Buddy Bear to learn how to help people in trouble all over the world. Every day was a different adventure. This is the first in a series of ten children's books focusing on Spunky, Dunky and Buddy Bear's unique adventures. Each story integrates several interwoven character-building themes. Each adventure deals with the common struggles that children and moneys face as they grow up and learn to focus on the needs of others. Buddy bear becomes the ideal parent-figure who models integrity, warmth, discipline and purpose. As they learn to trust Buddy Bear, both moneys and children internalize his character traits, passion and skills to help other people in need. They begin to realize that the greatest adventure in life lies beyond oneself.
