When Guppy the Puppy's family takes a trip to the Grand Canyon, they tell him to wait in the car while they go for a hike. No one is expecting Guppy to go on his own hike - all over the Canyon. But this isn't just any hike. Guppy is lost and spends the day trying to find his way back to the car. His hike isn't without perils, as he encounters a Rattlesnake, hungry Mountain Lion, a mighty Condor, and some wild Coyote pups. Luckily, a Raven introduces him to many friendly residents of the Canyon, too, like a Deer, a Lemur, a Skunk, a Rabbit and Bats. They all pitch in to help Guppy find his way back after his long and exciting Grand Canyon Adventure.

Contemporary Cake Designs - Book One is not just another book about cake decorating. It is a book that is filled with a wealth of wonderful tips on what to do, what not to do, how to do it and why not to do it and it has an amazing 500+ photographs that make this book a pictorial step-by-step guide on some of the intricate techniques of this growing craft. "I take inspiration from life - from the environment and friends and I use these daily lessons to build ideas for my cakes" Jackie said.
