The Ricky, Ray & Rusty books deliver the funniest, most faith‑filled Grand Canyon adventures your kids will ever read. Between canyon cliffs, mule mishaps, roaring rapids, and a chipmunk with suspiciously good balance, these stories blend clean humor, creation science, and heartfelt biblical truth in a way that keeps kids laughing while learning.

In Book 1, Ricky, Ray & Rusty Visit the Grand Canyon, the three cousins—Ricky the fact‑lover, Ray the mischief‑maker, and Rusty the squirrel‑obsessed explorer—join Aunt Pat and Uncle Dean for a hike‑filled, fossil‑finding journey through one of God’s greatest wonders. From mule adventures to Bright Angel Creek discoveries, the boys uncover evidence that the canyon isn’t just breathtaking—it points to the truth of Scripture.

In Book 2, Ricky, Ray & Rusty Raft the Colorado River, the adventure ramps up as the crew tackles whitewater rapids, whirlpool wipeouts, and even a chipmunk stowaway. With Uncle Dean steering and Aunt Pat sharing God’s Word, the boys learn how the canyon’s layers and fossils support the Bible’s account of a global flood. It’s a splashy, silly, Scripture‑rich ride that brings creation science to life.

Both books include:

Creation science from a biblical worldview
Clean, family‑friendly humor
Adventure, fossils, and fun facts
Glossary, Fill-in-the-Blank Activities, and Word‑Search Puzzles
Perfect for ages 8–12 and Christian homeschool families

Whether hiking the rim or rafting the river, these stories point young readers to the Creator with joy, laughter, and unforgettable adventure.
