Dylan is 12 years old and embarking on his first ocean kayaking trip with his parents. He has spent the last year convincing them that he is ready for the challenging - and very dangerous - adventure. In fact, he has been determined to go ever since he heard about the destination: Ireland’s Eye. The small island off the coast of Newfoundland is the easternmost settlement in Canada. Or it was. It is now hauntingly empty, a ghost town clinging to the edge of the unforgiving Atlantic.

Every summer, Laney’s family visits their cottage on Tidnish Beach. Summertime on Nova Scotia’s north shore is slow and sweet: there are long days in the water until fingers turn pruney, bottomless glasses of cherry Kool-Aid and bonfires with the other families summering along the shore. But this year the baking heat and bright red sand provide cold comfort. This year Laney’s little sister, Jenny, is gone.

Tony, Craig and Shawn are trapped on an ice floe on the Petitcodiac River in the dead of winter, and the rapid current is pulling them toward the ocean. Twelve-year-old Petra arrives, and the boys think they’re saved, but their dangerous journey is only just beginning.

Things aren’t going well for 15-year-old Dylan Maples. He’s sick of his own reflection, his parental units are driving him nuts and he’s trying to come to terms with the unexpected death of one of his best friends. Now, he’s been roped into a family trip to New Brunswick. After just a few hours in Bathurst, Dylan worries this will turn out to be the most boring vacation ever, but when he meets a local girl, Antonine, and the two of them witness what looks like a burning ship way out on the water, he begins to think that New Brunswick might be more interesting than he thought.

A summer hike in the New Brunswick woods turns into a nightmare when Shawn and his friends find themselves trapped by a raging forest fire. Now their only chance for survival may be the legendary White Caves...but can they find them in time? Join Shawn, Petra, Craig, Tony, and Hobart the dog - the heroes of Chocolate River Rescue - in their newest wilderness adventure!

Kate’s family has told her that on her 13th birthday she’ll hear the “Whooooo” call of the moon, and howl back, and become a werewolf just like them. But she doesn’t want to be a werewolf. She’s always felt more like a duck. On the night of her 13th birthday, Kate stands near her family’s cabin in the backwoods of New Brunswick and hears the moon calling - but it sounds like more of a “Whooooo?” as in “Who are you?”, and Kate does what she’s always wanted to do - she quacks. Quack, quack, quacks.

After reading about Amelia Earhart in her friend’s scrapbook, 12-year-old Ginny Ross decides to become a pilot. It’s 1930, and luckily, the airstrip in her hometown of Harbour Grace, Newfoundland, is a popular launching point for intrepid aviators setting out on transatlantic flights. But how will Ginny’s dream take flight when her mother—and society in general—so fiercely believes a woman’s place is in the home?
