Carolyn King & Dandy Da Dog's "Wild Adventures In The Great Outdoors Of NW Colorado"

Get ready to saddle up and head for the high country! Carolyn King & Dandy Da Dog’s Wild Adventures in NW Colorado is a charming children’s book series that captures the rugged beauty, rich history, and untamed spirit of the Centennial State’s northwest corner.

The Heart of the Story

At the center of every adventure is Carolyn King, a spunky, wide-eyed protagonist with a knack for getting into—and out of—wild situations. She isn’t your average explorer; she’s a local expert in training who views the world through a lens of curiosity and kindness.

By her side is her faithful, four-legged sidekick, Dandy Da Dog. Whether they are navigating the Yampa River, exploring the Flat Tops Wilderness, or trekking through the historic streets of Steamboat Springs, Dandy provides the comic relief and the occasional “paws” of reason when Carolyn’s bravery gets a bit too big for her boots.

Why Kids (and Parents) Love It

This series isn’t just about fun; it’s an educational journey through one of the most unique landscapes in America. Each book blends:

Real Geography: Readers visit real-life landmarks like Dinosaur National Monument, Rabbit Ears Pass, and the Zirkel Wilderness.
Western Heritage: The stories celebrate the ranching culture, skiing history, and the “Yampa Valley Curse” (the legend that people who visit are destined to return).
Wildlife Wonders: Carolyn and Dandy encounter elk, moose, eagles, and the occasional grumpy badger, teaching children about conservation and respect for nature.
Core Values: Every “Wild Adventure” emphasizes the importance of friendship, environmental stewardship, and the grit required to live in the mountains.

A Peek Into the Adventures

From the snowy peaks of 10,000 feet to the sagebrush-covered plains of Moffat County, Carolyn and Dandy prove that you don’t need a passport to find a world of excitement. Whether they are solving a mystery at a local rodeo or helping a lost calf find its way home during a blizzard, the duo showcases the true meaning of Western Grit.

“In NW Colorado, the mountains are big, but Carolyn King’s heart is even bigger.”
