I have been crushed into suitcases and backpacks. I&’ve been snowed on and sleeted on and windblown. I&’ve climbed to…
heights no self-respecting coat should ever have to endure. I&’ve ridden on subways, trains, and trolleys, flown in planes, and ridden in derelict taxis. I&’ve bumped along on a donkey. I have felt like I was flying in the back of a pickup truck tearing across desert flats and dunes. I&’ve waded into rivers and oceans and across streams on slippery rocks. I have even traveled on a Navy warship clear across the Pacific Ocean and helped steer it for just a little while. I&’ve petted elephants in the wild and watched a cheetah hunt his weekly meal. I&’ve climbed towers into what seemed to be the very clouds and crossed a bridge over a waterfall so tall and wide I couldn&’t see the end or the bottom of it. And more! It&’s been a lot for a coat to do! Join me in my travels!

cheap. But Mrs. Pennypacker has wrestled money for a vacation from his tightfisted grip, and the family is on their way to a Disney cruise. Charlie Pennypacker is thrilled to be going somewhere—an eleven story luxury cruise liner, 212-foot water slide, and an all-night buffet awaits! So Charlie thinks. The vacation is actually a Wisney cruise, which means a dilapidated fishing boat, fake Disney characters, no water slide, eggs for every meal, and his enemy Gunter Hwang, who has been brought along for thirty dollars a day. On top of that, the captain is on the run from sinister men in dark suits. It's a Caribbean game of cat and mouse involving wits, interrogations, a hidden room, races against time, and clever deceptions. As Mr. Pennypacker would say, you can't get this kind of adventure on those other overpriced cruises.
