    About this ebook

    Jack Miller, a fun loving sixth grader is looking forward to his holiday with his sister Mia. Jack can not wait for the school to finish the last day. Jack and Mia frequent Mr Smith's ice cream and are also good friends with his children Oliver Smith and Anna Smith. They will spend this holiday with their favorite cousins instead of their friends, while there parents are off to their holiday leaving the kids on their own away at a summer camp. Like most the holidays that they spend together, the children find themselves embroiled in an uninvited adventure when they stumble upon Jacob. Jacob is a " unwilling stowaway" in the RV that Mr Dawson, Noah's father rented for their holiday. Unknown to the parents, Jacob is not exactly who he says he is. He is not something what any of the children or their parents could even come up with in their wildest dreams. The children take it up on themselves to help Jacob reunite with his family. They are not aware of where it will take them and the things that they will experience. The children try to use their knowledge and skills to deduce where Jacob is from. Doing searches and internet does not seem to be of much help until Jacob decides to help them out and "allows" the search to take place on the internet. The children find it fascinating and to get to know more about Jacob and get their parents of their backs, they tell them that they have everything under their control and Jacob will be safely reunited as soon as they get to the Summer camp. The parents take the children on their word and drop them off to the summer camp while on their way to their holiday destination. Once at the camp, the children begin the exploration to locate the exact place that Jacob identifies as his home, Aldonia. They take a fun hike into the forest that surrounds their camp beside Mount Yessen, and a majestic river that runs just nearby. They hike for a few miles and stop to rest and eat for sometime. Everyone has something with them that they share with each other while resting nearby the river. Then Jacob, also shares some fruits that he "has" gotten from the trees in the forest. This has some unwanted effects on the children as they fall asleep. Jacob goes into the river as Jack tries to see what Jacob is upto but his eye's do not keep him company as he also falls asleep despite consuming the least of all the children. Everyone then wakes up in Aldonia, a new world. Aldonia, is full of never seen before things and experiences not experienced ever before. As they take in the sights and try to understand how Aldonia works, they are taken through it by Jacob and CAVs, Converted Aldonian Vehicles. Crafts propelled by light, ever changing fruits, building rising out of the surfaces, intelligent vehicles and beings. The experience that they have with the abilities they see will change them forever.

      Chapter 1 - Jack Goes On a Holiday

      It was the last day of school. Jack Miller could barely contain his excitement, as he waited for the school bell. He was looking forward to the holidays. His favorite cousins would be spending it with them. All the excitement, seemed to cause his freckle to flare-up. Jack's freckles worsened despite his efforts to control it. Like always, he had used so much hair spray, that not even a single red hair fell out of place on his freckle covered face. He was a sight, red hair and freckle to match it in his red tee and khaki trouser. Standing in at not much over 5 feet, he could easily be passed as someone much younger than himself.

      Hey Oli whispered Jack Time is hardly moving today. Jack whispered to his partner in crime. Bushy brown haired stocky built, Oliver Smith, sat across him in class. It is still 2pm for the last few hours. Oliver smirked, as he was also thinking the same to himself. Both the boys cast a glance towards George Bigman, the class prankster, sensing it might be his doing. George had fallen victim to the duo’s prank last week. They had removed the screws from George’s chair. The prank went down in history with George going down onto the floor. He fell for it for the third time that year! Literally. This time he had a go at it himself trying to prank others.

      George, slim built with an innocent looking face, had gotten his little fingers around the classroom clock earlier that day. He hoped to prank his class once more for the year before their elementary school ended. He had almost succeeded in doing that. Had it not been for Jack's curiosity, George would have succeeded.

      Each stare at the clock, confirmed to Jack that it was not working even though Jack had imagined the different times on the clock whenever he looked up at it. Just as Jack was about to tell Oliver about it, the school bell rang signaling the end of class and more importantly, beginning of school holidays.

      Nothing mattered anymore, as Jack packed his belongings into his backpack and began leading to form a queue in front. End of year walk was a tradition that Jack and his friends had begun ever since they had joined in the first year. It began as a misunderstanding but continued as a tradition. This was one tradition that Jack was happy to perform each and every time.

      Miss Emily, their teacher, called out to everyone in her penetrating voice, that sounded above the hustle and bustle of class, to line up in the front just as Jack reached the front of the class. She smiled at how prompt Jack had become all of a sudden. Have a great holiday everyone. Stay safe for middle school now. She continued, Jack calm down or you will trip over George's shoe lace dangling near your feet. And George, for the umpteenth time, please tie your shoe laces right now for all our sake.

      As George bent down to tie his shoe lace, the bell rang for the kids to move out. This marked the end of the school for the year. George would have been stomped upon by the eager kids wanting to get out of the classroom, had he not quickly gotten up.

      Jack rushed outside into the hallway just in time to see Mia, his sister,
