Fears Flights And Kangaroo Fights
$14.99From best-selling author Bill Myers comes a hilarious, faith-filled, and action-packed adventure starring the Mulligan family.
The Mulligans are off to the jungles of South America to help Mom save some snakes in need of a new home. Jessica, terrified of snakes, is not thrilled to be on this particular mission of mercy, but she soon discovers an effective way to get over her fears: find something even scarier. Like crash-landing in the jungle and having to spend the night with LOTS of creepy crawly sounds all around.
Meanwhile, Nick and Lisa are on their own mission to transport Bob, a big kangaroo, back to the animal park. But they encounter a group of bad guys who have their own plans for the kangaroo: putting him in a boxing ring and charging admission to watch Bob fight some unlucky human.
Back home, Dad, Janelle, Stephanie, and Julie are facing their own challenges: taking care of Mulligan’s animal park while fearing what is happening to the rest of the family, away from home and facing danger. And as Dad tells Julie, we can’t get rid of fear by ignoring it, but you can focus on something better, like God’s love and His promises.
The Magnificent Mulligans can’t help but find adventure, and it’s usually their love of helping animals that leads them there.
