📚 Stories for Kids!

A storyteller and children’s book author is getting ready to launch her very first series of books right here on Silver Trekker — with read-aloud tales, silly adventures, and characters you’ll want to meet again and again.

Coming soon — stay tuned!
Hello, young explorers! Soon this page will be full of stories you can read with a grown-up, listen to at bedtime, or follow along on road trips — just like Doug & Marla do in their camper. Below are the first friends waiting on the bookshelf. More are on the way!
Book series #1

Snivis the Naughty Kitty

Snivis is a mostly black boy kitty — fluffy, fast, and very sure the rules are suggestions. He knocks pencils off desks, opens cupboards with his paw, and once tried to ride a Roomba like a royal chariot. Every story ends with a purr… and usually an apology note to Mom.

🚀 First book: Snivis and the Great Yarn Heist

Book series #2

Semi & Trailer

Meet Semi the big friendly semi-truck and Trailer his faithful rolling partner — they know every highway, every rest stop, and every kid who honks from a passing car. Together they haul surprises, mystery cargo labels, and one loading dock that might actually be a portal. (Probably not. Probably.)

🚀 First book: Semi & Trailer: Roaring Tuesday

Book series #3

Silver Trekker Adventures

Silver Trekker isn’t just a camper — it’s a shiny little hero with sunglasses, a bouncy awning, and two favorite People who take it everywhere fun. Silver Trekker gets muddy, drives through rainstorms, and once counted 47 bugs on its windshield before the People said “okay, time to squeegee.”

🚀 First book: Silver Trekker and the Bug-Armored Sunglasses

🌧️ What happens to Silver Trekker on the road?

Silver Trekker loves adventures — even the messy ones. The People say every splat and puddle is “character building.” Silver Trekker thinks that means more stories to tell.

  • Rainy days: wipers go swish-swish and mud polka-dots the fenders.
  • 🪲 Bug season: sunglasses turn into bug goggles until someone finds the squeegee.
  • 🏕️ Camp setup: awning out, chairs arranged, marshmallows standing by.
  • 🌄 Sunrise: coffee smells for the People, dew on the door handle for Silver Trekker.
  • 🛣️ Highway hum: Silver Trekker sings along with the rumble strips (off-key).
  • 🧽 Car wash day: the only day Silver Trekker pretends not to like bubbles.
