To be stranded anywhere - Marooned - sucks. It’s going to be uncomfortable. You’re going to have to find a way to get through it, until rescue. Usually that means finding shelter, eating bugs, and drinking urine. You know the deal. But for astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Wilmore it will mean an extended stay in the place they've always longed to be. Outer Space.
Bonnie Pandya's book is Little Tail, Big Tales and can be found wherever you buy books.
Aaron's books are Peek A Boop and Wag A Boop and are on Amazon.

Timothy Treadwell, infamously known as “Grizzly Man”, referred to himself as The Kind Warrior. A nod to his tireless work in the wild as a documentarian and aspiring arbiter of all things animal. This unique character strove to become one with the bears of Alaska. A dream that would be fulfilled in nightmare fashion.

The Jungle looks like a pretty fun place in cartoons. Appears to be a hot spot for adventure in the movies. Juliane Koepcke, a teenager at the time of this story, knew the adventure part. She, unlike most German teenagers, had spent time in the jungle. Not enough to master its secrets to survival, but apparently just enough to give it a problem killing her... after the plane crash failed to do it.

On top of the world. You’d think you’d be jubilant. But at the peak of Mount Everest there’s little energy to celebrate. You’ve got about 20 minutes to enjoy the view, to take in your enormous accomplishment - before it’s time to go. You’re dying. You’re at high risk of cerebral edema. Brain swelling. It’s a grand achievement but you must go back down. You can’t let it get to your head. Or you will die. In the Death Zone.

What could be worse than becoming lost at sea?. Without a boat. Drifting with the current… What could be worse?Hanging on to half a dozen other unfortunate souls, some wailing that they can’t hang on for much longer… Sharks swimming below… no thanks. But then an island pops up. And you feel the heat of its sand beneath you by morning. What could be better? Fresh water for sure. Hey… maybe that Komodo dragon over there knows where to find some….

This episode's story takes place in the year of 1967. It's summertime in Alaska, but the mountain Denali, widely known as The Great One, is above such seasons. 100 mile per hour winds are common, as are avalanches. Visibility can be clear or zero depending on conditions which can fluctuate wildly.
All clear?
Well then let’s give it a go before this storm rolls in.

On the northwest corner of 128th street and 5th Avenue in New York City’s Harlem, you’ll find a small, gated park that seems odd and out of place. Collyer Park sits where a once proud brownstone stood. The so-called Collyer Mansion, or Ghost House, that was torn down, ironically, after an odd and out of place duo finally wore out their welcome there; The Collyer Brothers.

True crime bleeds into everything. Name it. Name any given subject then attach the word “murder” before sending it off on an internet search. Chances are that it’ll come back like a cat with a broken bird in its mouth. And that’s not what we wanted for Marooned. But there seems to be no escape. Unless you’re a miracle like The Sea Waif. Alone and adrift. Something of a crime in itself.
