About the book

Brian Duhon's debut children's book, The Adventure Friends Ski Day, is an inspiring tale about the fun and adventure of being outdoors. Brian wants to share his love for adventure with others and inspire people to get out into nature and make memories. "I wanted to read books to my children about adventure and teach them about the amazing outdoor activities we have around us, but couldn't find any. So I decided to write one." Brian loves to involve his two sons in his hobbies and show them the thrills of playing and exploring outside. 


The story follows along four animal friends skiing on a fun-filled powder day and end the day enjoying each other's company by a fire. Likely to bring a smile to any outdoor enthusiast, the characters have names with outdoorsy puns; Gnarwhal, Radypus, Pow Cow and Shreddy Bear. The colorful and vivid illustrations bring the characters expressions and personalities to life.

"The story and illustrations are so sweet, and funny...perfect for little shredders."

Peter James Wynne

"As residents of Atlanta, my daughter is now obsessed with skiing. Day 1 I had to read it to her 5 or so times and she slept with the book and brought it into our bed the next morning for an encore! It’s a home run and I can’t reccomend it enough for the little ones. We can’t wait for the next edition!"

"This amazing Colorado dad's debut children’s book is a heartwarming tale with beautiful illustrations.  I’ve fallen in love with Shreddy Bear."

"I used to snowboard any chance I got. For years we would pack up on the weekends and hit the slopes and had a blast. The Adventure Friends Ski Day brought back so many memories. If you have a little ones that love the snow then this is going to be a great book for them. The story was not only cute and well written, the art is fantastic."

"This is a good book full of vibrant colors and a great message of getting and exploring outdoors. Easy and simple to read!"

"This book is full of adventure, friendship and lots of rhyming! As much as I love warm weather, after reading this book I definitely wanted to bundle up and go skiing!"

Linsday Sturgeon

"My kids LOVE this book. It gets requested at bedtime every night, but the best part is that I like it to. We've all had those books that our kids want read to them...but they make us want to stab ourselves in the eye with a pencil. This is not one of those books!"
