Adam and the Python Ron Reiersen

Baraboo Village is a fictitious farming community somewhere in the vast forests of the Pacific Northwest. Beyond the wetlands, brambles, and fallen trees that surround the village, is the great Baraboo Forest. Sometimes dangerous animals from the other side of the world are brought to the carnivals and zoos of North America. If any of those animals escape into the wild, they can destroy much of our native wildlife and upset the age-old balance between predator and prey. That's exactly what happened to the wildlife of Baraboo Forest. Join the kittens, Callie and Ivan, and Adam, the American Indian boy, as they hunt for the dangerous creature that spread fear throughout the forest. As the search continues, Adam soon learns he had become the hunted. Amid the excitement and danger, raccoons provide comic relief, while the love between Callie and Ivan continues to grow ever stronger. Welcome to the heartwarming and thought-provoking story of "Adam and the Python."
