Set in a small Australian farming town on the edge of a national park, Jake and the PB's is an exciting tale of adventure for boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 11 years. A sequel to the ever-popular Jake's Secret, the book tells the story of Jake and his best mate, Sam, Ricky, the class nerd, Tom, the school bully, and Janey, the girl next door; a group of ordinary kids with extraordinary super-powers. Joined by their friend Chadwick, a colorful magic elf with a large, round, yellow face, Jake and his "PB's" take magical powder that shrinks them in size, allowing them to fit inside a hovering, flying car that travels back and forth through time. Dedicated to the motto "Protect and Assist," the group of friends travels forward in time in an effort to save a habitat of koalas that are at risk from a local farmer who wants to clear his land. Discover what other exciting adventures await Jake and his friends, as they career through time, trying to return to their own era, before the effects of the magical powder wear off!
