In their third adventure on the island of Bermooda, Chuck and Dakota (Lost in Bermooda; Crown of the Cowibbean) encounter a mysterious genie-in-a-shell on the beach. Set against the backdrop of the "legen-dairy" Cowabunga Classic surf competition, the friends learn that not all wishes are equal. Filled with bovine wordplay galore, this is a solid addition to the transitional reader series.

In this sequel to Lost in Bermooda, Chuck and Dakota leave Bermooda after accidentally stowing away on the Swashclucker, a pirate ship captained by a feisty rooster. The "buccowneers" must find an elusive treasure using a map and rhyming clues. An excellent title for new readers, the short chapters with cartoonish illustrations are packed with rib-tickling wordplay and goodhearted fun.

Chuck, like his bovine friends, is sure "hu'mans" are evil until a friendly boy washes up on his tropical island of Bermooda. Silliness abounds, complete with wordplay and some island-y idioms, and readers will enjoy the opportunity to be one step ahead of the characters. Black-and-white cartoonlike illustrations show a variety of creatures enjoying island life. Moohalo!
