(Christoons Publishing, June 11, 2012)
These stories are written around a group of colourful young creatures that live and play together on an exotic island close to the ocean. The Jumbalees behave like human children. They work together even when they disagree as they make their way through exciting and sometimes scary adventures. Their social interactions help prepare them for dealing with others and the world around them, and their loyalty and humour allow them to overcome the obstacles they face. In this story their youth centre has to close due to lack of funds but an encounter with a group of pirates provides an unexpected solution to the problem.
