Barbara & The Grocery Train Adventure: A Funny, Heartwarming Tale of Snacks, Scooters, and Saying Yes to Life (Barbara Chronicles)

By Lacey Hill-Joga

One Mom. Two Kids. Snacks Required. Leg, Opinionated.

In the whimsical land of Lanie-Lou-somewhere between Laundry Mountain and the Great Couch Plains-lives a very peculiar pirate crew: one tired mom, two fearless daughters, and a left leg named Barbara, courtesy of MS, who has a lot of feelings.

Barbara doesn't do long walks. Or short ones. Or stairs. Or behaving in public. So, when Lainie needs to brave the grocery store while Ramon the Brave is off fighting dragons aboard a naval ship, she hatches a plan: tie the kids' wagon to her red scooter, climb aboard, and roll through the chaos with snacks as the ultimate treasure.

Together, they become The Grocery Train-a legendary caravan of giggles, goldfish crackers, and questionable steering. But not every voyage is smooth sailing, especially when a rogue tree root sends the whole caboose tumbling.
Barbara & The Grocery Train Adventure... is the second book in the Barbara Chronicles, a laugh-out-loud tale of snacks, scooters, and saying "yes" to adventure-even on the wobbliest of days.

Choo-choo. And onward.
