“If you are unfamiliar with the series, The Bubba Jones series centers on Tommy “Bubba Jones,” and his sister Jenny “Hug-a-Bug” when they are told that they have the power to time travel! Together they go on adventures solving mysteries, encountering various wildlife and animals, and learning about the history of the national parks.
