Aristata Press Launches Humorous and Horror-filled Young Adult Animal Allegory—High Noon on Come Along Slough by Bruce Campbell
S For Story/10634026
In High Noon on Come Along Slough, rampant human pollution threatens the animals living on Come Along Slough. They come together to form a shaky alliance to survive.
PORTLAND, Ore. - s4story -- Aristata Press announces the release of their first YA title, High Noon on Come Along Slough. Available now for pre-order online in Hardcover, Paperback, and eBook, this book is sure to become an animal allegory classic. Bruce Campbell, co-author of This Rough Magic: At Home on the Columbia Slough, published last year with Nancy Henry, has penned this simultaneously humorous and horror-filled story of how climate change can affect the natural world. Hilary Glass's charming illustrations bring all of the dastardly and endearing animal characters to life.
In High Noon on Come Along Slough, humans have despoiled the slough's habitat, endangering the survival of the animals who live there. Food is scarce. In an effort to fight chronic hunger, a shaky alliance of carnivores and herbivores creates the United Slough of Animals. The USA imposes strict eating quotas, but Coyote and Elrod the Stoat are shameless scofflaws and don't want Big Government meddling with their natural right to eat their fill of Rabbits. Only "trickle down gastronomics" works for them. Owl, Muskrat, River Otter, Crow, Raccoon, Hummingbird, Squib Dog, and many other animals try to respect the rules, but after the Rats invade Come Along Slough, the USA slides into deeper crisis, and the animals must forge an unexpected alliance.
