Learn about Errl, the
alien teen Sasquatch (Bigfoot) who becomes separated from his companions and
teacher when their airpod crashes in the Kootenays. The nearsighted alien is
lost for ten days, struggling to find the rescue ship that will take him home
to Planet X.
In Errl's experience
on Earth, there are angry hunters and police who chase him with guns, including
a nervous Cub Scout leader who panics when he first spots Errl, lost and alone
in the forest.
There is everything
but a bomb squad from Homeland Security to defuse the harmless Bigfoot, and a
demolition derby almost ensues when a kind trucker rescues him from a broken
down RCMP paddy wagon and streaks through the forest with a van full of teens
in flaming pursuit.
A friendly trapper and
his son, and a sympathetic sheriff, befriend Errl, and he meets Hunny, a
gorgeous Earth Bigfoot girl who is covered with golden fur. Errl doesn't want
to leave Hunny behind, but his newfound friends are determined to find his ship
and rescue him from the hunters,
Sightings of Sasquatch
(Bigfoot) go back further than modern North American scare stories. The
Canadian Press, Vancouver, reports that a Sasq'ets (Sasquatch) mask was
recently returned from the Vancouver Museum to British Columbia, Canada
aboriginal peoples. The mask disappeared in 1939 from
the Sts'ailes First Nation near Harrison Hot Springs.
James Leon, who found and returned the revered artifact to
its rightful owners, claims that sightings of Sasquatch by First Nations
peoples go back for thousands of years. The mask was carved from descriptions
of what they consider lucky sightings of Bigfoot over the centuries.
In McKinnon's YA novel, Bigfoot Boy: Lost on Earth, the
luck looks like it's going to trickle out through Errl's big hairy feet as he
plunges from one misadventure to the other. "Wonderfully unique and
vivid phrasing adds polish and humor to this dynamic tale."
