Helping kids find that spark for parks

Have you ever been so excited to share something with your kids only to be greeted with a less than enthusiastic responseWe get it!  We are parents too!  We didn’t want our kids glued to screens, only to battle them when we wanted to go for a fun hike or family trip.  That’s why we created Dilbert just for this reason!  Now is the time for adventure and experiences.  More and more parents want to take their kids exploring, hiking, and camping.

What makes Dilbert the Duck special?

Dilbert is a fantastic way to introduce your child to their next amazing adventure.  It’s not just a children’s book about national parks, it’s a story about a character they will adore, exploring the parks you want them to love!
Dilbert doesn’t tell your child about national parks, he shows them with his own engaging story.  And families are loving it!  We are so excited for the feedback we have received!  Kids want to go exploring where Dilbert has been.  One mom wrote to tell us her son recognized Thor’s Hammer in Bryce National Park and wanted to take a picture right where Dilbert was.
Grab a copy of Dilbert today and watch your child fall in love with adventure!  Get Free Shipping here.


Dilbert the Duck was written by Debbie Houghton, a tenured elementary school teacher with a love for kids, serving Southern Utah for over twenty years.

This is why you bring bear spray to the Grand Tetons

It’s a little nuts, but wanted to share for the first time how we photographed “Dilbert the Duck visits the Grand Tetons” to look the way it did.
