Dude's Gotta Snowboard: A French marmot, her funny mountain mates and their crazy sports adventures! Kids 8-12 yrs. - Paperback

by Muddy Frank (Author)

Magali was supposed to sleep through winter in her burrow high in the French Alps.

Instead, an overexcited Saint Bernard puppy accidentally digs her out of hibernation and launches her onto a snowy mountain full of snowboard-obsessed animals.

Now the young marmot is cold, lost, and stuck with "The Dudes" - a wild group of competitive snowboarders who promise to take her home... right after one quick ride.

But one ride turns into snowboarding under the moonlight, racing down pistes, hanging out in the snowpark, and entering a slalom competition Magali never asked to join.

Somehow, the shy marmot who had never even spoken to other animals suddenly finds herself:

• best friends with a rabbit,
• learning to trust her instincts,
• and discovering she might actually love speed and adventure.

The only problem?

Nobody remembers to take her home.

Perfect for readers aged 8-12 who love funny animal stories, winter sports adventures, and fast-paced middle grade fiction filled with friendship, teamwork, and chaos on the slopes.

Readers can enjoy each book in the series in any order as Magali and her friends tackle new adventures including:

• snowboarding
• river rafting
• mountain biking
• paragliding
• bobsleighing
• rock climbing
• paintballing
• wakeboarding

Available in English, French, Spanish, and bilingual editions.
