I knew the big buck standing in front of me was further away than my dad would have liked. And because I had already messed up twice, I begged him to take the shot. But Dad refused. He said I’d have to do it. “This is your buck,” he whispered. This was it. It was now or never. And it was up to me. Birthday Buck is a wholesome, heartwarming story about a boy named Jet and his journey toward his first deer—a journey that teaches him many timeless truths about life. This thrilling adventure with several unexpected twists and turns is an excellent book for any kid who loves the outdoors. It’s family-friendly and great for reading together or alone. No matter how it’s read, Birthday Buck will keep kids excitedly turning the pages, eager to find out what’s going to happen next.
