Bashful Billy and the Mysterious Island is a children's book for our tumultuous times. It features animals, adventure and nature while promoting friendship, respect and cooperation among different species.
The book is set on the shores of a lake in northern Illinois. The star is Bashful Billy, a bulldog who lives in a cottage on the lake with his human family. He spends his days sleeping on his dock and pondering a mysterious island in the middle of the lake. He wants to know who lives there and what their lives involve.
Thanks to a pair of strong beavers who give him a ride on their backs to the island, Billy begins to meet a variety of interesting animals: a pair of gorgeous swans, a group of pelicans, an imposing eagle, a sly fox, a deer and her doe, a fearsome coyote and a rugged turtle.
Each animal has named the island after his or her species. Nobody cooperates and everybody has a fear of the coyote. Over the summer months, Billy visits the island every day, building relationships and helping the animals bond. In late summer, a huge event occurs that threatens the entire island and all the inhabitants.
Bashful Billy must find a way to save them.
