"Atarangi, Michael, and Siu have crossed the Southern Alps and settled in Hokitika just as a new gold rush takes a firm grip of the town. There they’d hoped to carve out a new life in peace.
But they’re about to get the shock of their young lives.
When a ship crosses the notorious Hokitika Bar there are some unwelcome visitors aboard, and they come with wicked intentions.
The children are totally on their own, powerless against the forces of evil. Or are they?

"Second Census by John Victor Peterson - Quintuplets alone would be bad enough, without a census taker who could count them in advance!
In addition to being a genius in applied atomics, Maitland Browne's a speedster, a practical joker, and a spare-time dabbler in electronics.
As far as speed's concerned, I had a very special reason for wanting to get home early tonight, and swift straight flight would have been perfectly okay with me. The trouble was that Browne decided that this was his night to work on Fitzgerald.
Browne lifted the three passenger jetcopter—his contribution to our commuterpool—from the flight stage at Brookhaven National Laboratories in a strictly prosaic manner. Then the flight-fiend in him came out with a vengeance. Suddenly and simultaneously he set the turbo-jets to full thrust and dived to treetop level; then he started hedgehopping toward Long Island Sound. His heavy dark features were sardonic in the rear-view mirror; his narrowed, speculative eyes flicked to it intermittently to scan Ed Fitzgerald beside me.
Browne's action didn't surprise, startle, or even frighten me at first. I'd seen the mildly irritated look in his eyes when Fitzgerald had come meandering up—late as usual!—to the ship back on the stage. I had rather expected some startling development; provoking Ed Fitzgerald to a measurable nervous reaction was one of Browne's burning ambitions. I also had a certain positive hunch that Fitzgerald's tardiness was deliberate.
In any event my mind was ninety per cent elsewhere. Tessie—my wife—had visifoned me from Doc Gardiner's office in New Canaan just before I'd left my office at the Labs and had told me with high elation that we were destined to become the proud parents of quintuplets! I was, therefore, now going back bewilderedly over our respective family trees, seeking a precedent in the genes."
"Jones Stories Author
Jamee Dee
Hi everyone!
Above all else, I’m a dad of four children.
These interactive Jones Stories were shared verbally with my two youngest children. These stories are designed to expand parent’s and children’s imaginations. Jones Stories are and were maximum FUN!
I’ve been writing for many years. I’ve written film screenplays, scripts, magazine articles, advertising copy, and I’ve worked in the entertainment business for over 30 years.
As a parent, I wanted something different for my children, to stir their active imaginations.
To keep the action moving, these books are written like a movie script. Very little description is given, so that each child uses their own imagination.
Everyone gets the story in their own mind’s eye.
These stories were loved by my children and please enjoy the wild Jones Family ride.
The Jones Family are an average family that stumbles into a world of magic.
Thank you all,
Jamee Dee"
