Overview:
A Roly-Poly Flying Pony Adventure 3 Books Set invites young readers into a warm, wittily illustrated world where friendship, courage, and a fondness for custard creams carry the day. Starring Kevin, the plump, endearingly talkative flying pony, this trio follows his misadventures with his best friend Max (and in Kevin’s Great Escape, with Daisy too) as they navigate appetite, mischief, and big-hearted rescues. Each title blends light fantasy with grounded, relatable humor—perfect for children stepping into chapter books and for families who love to read aloud together. The set offers a satisfying reading journey: a brisk, page-turning rhythm, gentle problem-solving, and a generous helping of warmth that makes every page turn feel worthwhile. Whether you’re gifting an emerging reader or building a cozy home library, these stories deliver instant appeal, memorable characters, and a sense of belonging in Bumbleford’s wonderfully peculiar world.
What Makes This Collection Special:
What ties these three adventures together is Kevin’s irresistible charm and the comforting rhythm of Reeve’s storytelling paired with McIntyre’s bright, friendly illustrations. The collection grows with the reader: a playful mystery (biscuits and clues), a high-spirited rescue caper, and a bold, underwater-flights-and-mermaids finale. Readers enjoy a consistent voice, a budding sense of bravery, and the humor that keeps each book light-footed and highly readable. It’s a complete mini-journey—the kind of set that becomes a treasured shelf staple and a natural gift idea for young fantasy fans who crave whimsy, kindness, and a dash of heroes’ heart in their stories.
Books Included in This Collection:
Kevin and the Biscuit
In Bumbleford, a spate of biscuit thefts turns the town upside down, and Kevin—the roly-poly flying pony—becomes the initial focus of suspicion. Max and Kevin embark on a witty, fast-paced chase, decoding clues and dodging mishaps along the way. The story blends cheeky humor with friendship as they prove that true loyalty matters more than a tasty treat. It’s a brisk, accessible opener that invites new readers to believe in the magic of a dependable friend and a clever plan.
Kevin's Great Escape
When the spotlight falls on a bigger stage—Misttwig Misty Twiglet, a famous pop star moving into Bumbleford—Kevin’s adventures take a twist toward a high-stakes rescue. Kevin is captured, biscuits are scarce, and Max and Daisy rally to mount a bold, courageous effort to bring him home. The book balances suspense with warmth, delivering a confident, kid-friendly adventure that reinforces teamwork, perseverance, and the joy of seeing a friend through trouble.
The Legend of Kevin
A storm sweeps Kevin from the wild hills to Max’s doorstep, and Bumbleford’s world grows unexpectedly epic. The town floods in a memorable, comic-capitalized moment that leads to a courageous mission: venturing into underwater danger, enlisting unlikely helpers, and returning to a grateful community. This finale blends heart, humor, and a triumphant rescue, all while showcasing the power of friendship and community support. The result is a satisfying read that feels both adventurous and reassuring for young readers discovering the joys of chapter books.
