Along with his clever sister Penny and their gentle Bigfoot friend Big, Harry is swept into a glittering adventure filled with miners, tunnels, and treasure. Not everything shiny is what it seems.
Inside a busy gold town, the trio learns the difference between real treasure and fool’s gold as curiosity leads them into danger.

Perfect for independent readers and read aloud family time, this playful story blends light history, magical storytelling, and laugh out loud moments. A great choice for fans of children’s adventure books, Bigfoot stories for kids, and early chapter books with heart, this tale reminds young readers that the greatest treasures are not always made of gold.
