Discovery in Great Sand Dunes National Park

National Park Mystery Series, Book 2

De: Aaron Johnson

Narrado por: Aaron Johnson

The scavenger hunt continues in book two of the best-selling National Park Mystery series.

After camping in Rocky Mountain National Park, Jake and his friends travel to the Great Sand Dunes in southern Colorado. Exploring the heart of the dunes, they stumble upon something both unexpected and dangerous. Through more twists and turns, Jake’s friendships and integrity are tested by choices that will demand smarts and courage.

Before Jake’s grandfather died, he was on the trail of a centuries-old mystery. And he has entrusted that mystery to Jake, leaving behind a set of hidden codes, riddles, maps, and other clues that lead Jake and his friends on a scavenger hunt into the most wild and rugged wilderness of the national parks.

The mystery unfolds as Jake, Amber, and Wes learn about survival skills, natural history, integrity, character, and friendship.

Along the way, they discover they are not the only ones on this quest. An elusive shadow group is close on their heels.

This adventure is designed to capture the imagination of even the most reluctant of young listeners. Parents looking for a delightful adventure will find it hard to put down. (Word of caution: listeners frequently note that this is a “Please just one more chapter” experience).

If your family loves the enchanted lands of our national parks, this series will take you to hidden places and into breathtaking landscapes. If you enjoy movies like National Treasure and Uncharted, or mystery adventures like the Hardy Boys and Gary Paulsen’s survival story, Hatchet, you’ll love this second installment of the National Park Mystery series.

Really enjoyed it.

We live in Colorado. Our family has been to all the parks. Loved learning more about them. Can’t wait for the next one.

Can't wait to listen to the next one!

We started this book on the way to Great Sand Dunes, and it made the trip so much more meaningful. First, we found the hamburger joint in Buena Vista for lunch along the way. It was just as good as the story described! We also hiked to Zapata Falls, and even added a day to our stay so we'd have time to do more of the things that Jake, Wes, and Amber did. My whole family enjoyed the audio, and we can't wait to listen to book 3 when it comes out. The way the author weaves in facts with an engaging story makes it a total win. The books are educational and fun to read.

I also love the authors notes and suggestions which encourages visiting the park and some good ideas on what to do, as well as practical advice. Thanks for the good times, Aaron!

interesting facts on National Parks

This is a fun mystery that happens in National Parks. Follow the young folks as they hike for clues. Along the way learn about facts and wonders of National Parks. I highly recommend it as a read for folks nine years and up.
