Aubrey and the Terrible Yoot [EPUB ebook] 

Aubrey is a rumbunctious boy who tries to run before he can walk and has crashed two cars before he’s old enough to drive one. But when Aubrey’s father, Jim, falls under an horrendous spell, Aubrey is determined to break it. Everyone says his task is impossible but with the help of the animals of Rushing Wood and a touch of magic, Aubrey will never give up and never surrender – even if he must fight the unkillable spirit of despair itself – the Terrible Yoot!
