The Blues-berry Festival is supposed to be filled with music, treats, and family fun. But when the ground suddenly gives way beneath Rooster, the celebration becomes a daring rescue that will test the courage of everyone who loves him.
ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
It’s time for the Blues-berry Festival in Trout Springs, and the whole town is blueberry bonkers!
From blueberry pie and blueberry pancakes to blueberry ice cream and even blueberry hot dogs, excitement is in the air! But just as the festivities are getting started, disaster strikes, and Rooster tumbles down an abandoned mine shaft!
Suddenly, all thoughts of blueberries are pushed aside as the townspeople and their pets band together in a daring race against time to rescue their faithful friend. Along the way, Rooster and Squid don’t just fight to keep hope alive; they also share lifesaving lessons about fractures, bloodwork, the emergency ABCs, shock, and recovery.
In this heart-pounding, heartwarming adventure, Rooster discovers the true meaning of friendship, family, and community—that no one gets left behind.
Best of all, you’ll reconnect with beloved friends from throughout the Rooster and Squid series, making this a joyful reunion filled with fun, courage, and blueberry-stained smiles.

My kids are 3.5 and 5 so didn’t know how they would like the chapter book format at this age, but they LOVED IT! … they absolutely adore the characters and the story. One of their favorite games now is playing search and rescue with Rooster, Squid, Bodie, and S’mores! (Shared with Dr. Jen and posted with thanks.)
