My near-death adventures (99% true!) : 99% True!

Stanley's life has recently been turned upside down.

He has discovered that the father he thought was dead was actually alive, and had left him and his mother soon after he was born.

His mother and father have been divorced, and in order to save money in order to make a fresh start in a new town, he and his mom are now working in his Uncle's lumber camp for the winter.

Stanley Granny (who can be up to 99% evil) is living and working with them.

As Stanley struggles to come to grips with his long absent father, he is plagued by a long string of practical jokes, mishaps, and a cousin who "helps" him get into all kinds of near death adventures.

Can Stanley find the culprit behind the practical jokes?  Will one of his adventures cause his own death?  Will his mother end up married to one of the loggers in the camp?

Find out in My Near Death Adventures!  (99% True!)
