When Brody and Willow race into the woods for their very first adventure, they expect to chase butterflies, splash through puddles, and maybe dig up a stick or two-but instead, they meet someone unexpected.

Hidden in a rustling bush sat a lonely raccoon named Jethro, his belly rumbling louder than the wind. He hasn’t eaten in days, and winter is coming fast. Mischievous as they are, Brody and Willow can’t ignore a friend in need. With wagging tails and brave little hearts, they set off through the forest to help him find food-meeting wise owls, clever squirrels, and a surprisingly grumpy badger along the way.

But the woods are big, the shadows are deep, and not every hiding place is easy to reach. The yorkies must work together and use their quick thinking.

Full of warmth, wonder, and woodland charm, this first book in The Adventures of Brody and Willow series reminds young readers that kindness, friendship, and courage can turn even the hungriest day into a happy ending.
