Kevin Miller’s “Up the Creek” is a beautiful adventure story of four boys from the small town of Milligan Creek in Saskatchewan. The boys have planned to explore the creek by canoe when it swells during the Spring. Dean alongside his friends Matt, Andy, and Chad have to deal with the huge chunks of ice and frigid waters from the Spring runoff. But the thrill of white-water rafting is greater than the pain and risks of the ice and rapids of the swollen creek. Their journey down the waters will see them navigate a swirling whirlpool, powerful currents, and churning water from the numerous culverts along the route. Andrew and Matt’s collision with a submerged log and the subsequent rescue from the icy waters only manages to temporarily dampen their spirits. They laugh over their experience and proceed to the graveyard bridge where they are to be picked up by their ride. Andrew and Matt are impatient with their ride which is several hours late and they decide to retrieve a drifting paddle before continuing their adventure into unchartered waters. Knowing how worried their parents would be if they did not turn up at the expected rendezvous point, they have to work together to resolve the crisis on their hands.

Miller’s “Unlimited” opens with the announcement of a school trip to the Heritage Marsh in Milligan Creek. Having conducted a highly successful prank, the four boys have the ingenious idea of taking over Wetlands Unlimited’s radio signal. They need the radio station to launch “It Came from the Grain” a suspenseful and scary play. They never did expect that their play would become so popular and that the waterfowl and wetlands expert will do anything to ensure she shuts down the eco-terrorists that had taken over her favorite radio. The story is set in Milligan Creek in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The lead characters Andrew, Matt, Dean, and Chad go for an adventure that will bring a lot of attention to the eco-project being promoted by wetlands expert Henrietta Blunt. The Suspense ramps up when the eco-activist teams up with Romanowski, an RCMP Constable to find the criminals. But they never discover the identities of the pranksters that had interfered with the radio signal even though they find the signal hijacker that Andy and his friend shad hidden at the station. It is a fun-filled, humorous, and delightful novel that tells of the adventures of four preteen boys.

Kevin Miller’s “The Water War” opens to Dean, Matt, Andrew, and Chad making a beeline for the pool. Like most of the preteen boys in town, they are drawn to Fiona Pickelberrybush, a beautiful girl that is new in town. As is to be expected, the girl is exasperated by all the attention and hence Matt proposes some type of distraction so their summer is not wrecked The distraction is a game named “Assassin,” where each player is both prey and hunter The game heats up when the boys join in hoping to win a date with Fiona and a cash prize. Fiona also joins in and in the quest for her attention, the close friendship the boy had built over the years starts to fray. Matt is particularly destroyed by the fact that their plans for the summer holidays including the crowning of Miss Milligan and the annual summer days festival were thrown into disarray by the arrival of the new girl. The humor and fun quickly escalate over time and soon rope in the formidable Mrs. Muller who recruits and starts to train one of the causalities of the game so that they can make a stronger team.
