Пра гэту аўдыякнігу

Get the jet! What could go wrong when cautious, scientific, singlet-wearing George Parker and reckless rich-kid Chase Landon-Bond take off on a global rescue mission? Just about everything! There are private jets, troublesome pets, crazed criminals, treacherous trips, chaos, too much coffee and two hundred million missing dollars. There are close calls, ridiculous disguises, accidental haircuts and that's just the first bit! Are George and Chase doomed? Will friendship and silly ideas save the day? Does wearing a cape make you brave? Get in planes, trains and automobiles with George and Chase ... and HOLD on tight!

As a child David Metzenthen was a nature boy; he loved fishing and farm work, exploring the bush, and being outdoors under the stars. He also lived very much inside his own head; feeling that the world was a place of unlimited adventure. He harboured dreams of becoming a cowboy, a fisherman, a farmer, a sailor, or a writer. Instead he left home at eighteen, with a copy of Jack Kerouac's On the Road for company, and hitch-hiked his way around New Zealand. Returning to Australia, David worked as a builder's labourer and advertising copy writer before finding success as a writer of books for children and young adults.
