The herons shrank from him.
The marsh swirled around him.
But even a crocodile can’t float forever...

Starting Saturday, July 5, meet Big Al: the gluttonous king of Stinkwater Marsh.

He’s big. He’s bad. He might belch feathers…or fur…after a snack.
But the swamp is changing and Big Al’s reign is about to end.


šŸ“– What is The Stinkwater Escapee?

A brand-new serial adventure for middle years readers (ages 9–13) — and the grownups who love them.

Think:

  • Reverse climate fiction šŸŒŽ

  • A swampy antihero with teeth 🐊

  • A world on the brink of something big (and weird) šŸŒ€

  • A city that doesn’t know what’s coming

This is the first tale to crawl out of A Garden of Galaxies, a rotating story garden for sharp minds, soft hearts, and curious creatures.
