Abstract:
Highlights include: The title story, Lost in the Andes: Donald and the nephews embark on an expedition to Peru to find where square eggs come from only to meet danger in a mysterious valley whose inhabitants all speak with a southern drawl, and where Huey, Dewey, and Louie save Unca' Donald's life by learning how to blow square bubbles! Two stories co-starring the unbearably lucky Gladstone, including the epic "Race to the South Seas, " as Donald and Gladstone try to win Uncle Scrooge's favor by being the first to rescue him from a desert island. Two Christmas stories, including "The Golden Christmas Tree, " one of Barks's most fantastic stories that pits him and the nephews against a witch who wants to destroy all the Christmas trees in the world. In other stories, Donald plays a TV quiz show contestant and ends up encased in a giant barrel of "Shaky-Jell, " a truant officer who matches wits with his nephews, and a ranch hand who outwits cattle rustlers.
