In the beginning, he squeaked into their lives unobtrusively and thus began the first of many adventures of a lifetime for Brandon and Bryan, a pair of bickering brothers. Initially disappointed by a cancelled vacation, the boys could not have known then that their fledging friendship with Squeaky, the magical man–squirrel would sow and reap many an adventure to while away their holidays and afternoons.
Venturing far and wide beyond the universe’s parallels, deep into the Earth’s core and even befriending extra–terrestrials, Brandon and Bryan will discover the power of knowledge as they seek it in adventure’s name. But more than just the romanticism of exciting journeys, the bickering brothers will discover their inner selves as well as their surprisingly strong brotherhood bonds awakening their deeply inculcated values with Squeaky mentoring them.
A Singaporean tale with a universal flavour, spanning six years in the writing, Joanna Wong has delightfully blended fact, fiction and moral values, all artfully crafted to take the reader beyond realms that only the most fertile imagination can create. But deeper than just the incredible journeys of the three protagonists and their friends, Joanna Wong has skillfully weaved the very aspects of being human into her multi–dimensional characters as they deal with life’s curveballs, very much her reminder to all, that fiction is no stranger than life itself.
