Sinopsis

In "Ruth Fielding at Snow Camp; Or, Lost in the Backwoods," Alice B. Emerson crafts a captivating narrative that transports readers to the wilderness of the Northeastern United States. With a gripping blend of adventure and coming-of-age elements, the story follows the spirited protagonist, Ruth Fielding, as she navigates the challenges and triumphs of a winter camp, entangled in the mysteries of the backwoods. Emerson'Äôs prose is marked by its vivid descriptions and an engaging, conversational style that invites readers into the heart of nature while also threading in themes of friendship, bravery, and self-discovery, reflective of early 20th-century children'Äôs literature that emphasizes moral lessons entwined with entertainment. Alice B. Emerson, a pseudonym for the prolific author and journalist, was deeply influenced by her own experiences with nature and the outdoors. Her writing is characterized by a keen awareness of children'Äôs perspectives, informed by her background in progressive education and her understanding of the changing role of girls in society. Through her works, Emerson aimed to empower young readers, especially girls, depicting them as resourceful, brave, and capable individuals. This book is highly recommended for young readers and anyone with a nostalgic appreciation for classic American adventure tales. Emerson'Äôs ability to weave life lessons into thrilling scenarios makes this a delightful read that encourages exploration of both the great outdoors and one'Äôs inner strengths. Whether you are a long-time fan of Ruth Fielding or a newcomer to Emerson's work, this tale promises to inspire and entertain.

    This story of two girls trying to banish a witch is “full of wonderful fun, excitement, and humor” (Library Journal).   Old Witch likes nothing better than to fly around on her broomstick, crying “Heh-heh!” and casting abracadabras. But now she has been sent away . . . by two young girls.   Amy and Clarissa have decided that Old Witch is just too mean and wicked. So, drawing a rickety old house upon a barren glass hill, they exile Old Witch there with a warning: She better be good, or else no Halloween! But to give Old Witch some company, they draw her a Little Witch Girl and a Weeny Witch Baby . . .   Old Witch tries to be good, but anyone would get up to no good in a place as lonely as the glass hill. And Amy and Clarissa are about to find that out, when Old Witch magics them into her world of make-believe-made-real, in “a very special book that is certain to give boundless pleasure—at any time of the year” (The Horn Book).   “A classic for Halloween.” —Library Journal

    Little Jack Horner sat in a corner, 
    Eating a Christmas pie; 
    He put in his thumb and pulled out a plum 
    And said, "What a good boy am I!" 
    LITTLE JACK HORNER lived in an old, tumble-down house at the edge of a big wood; and there many generations of Horners had lived before him, and had earned their living by chopping wood. Jack's father and mother were both dead, and he lived with his grandfather and grandmother, who took great pains to teach him all that a boy should know. 
    They lived very comfortably and happily together until one day a great tree fell upon Grandpa Horner and crushed his legs; and from that time on he could not work at all, but had to be nursed and tended very carefully. 
    This calamity was a great affliction to the Horners. Grandma Horner had a little money saved up in an old broken teapot that she kept in the cupboard, but that would not last them a great time, and when it was gone they would have nothing with which to buy food. But little Jack was a brave and hard working little lad who tried as best he could to help his grandparents earn a few pennies for food. Then, he rescued a stranger in a bog and their fortunes took a turn for the better. But you had best listen to the whole story to see why Jack had such a plum pie to eat that Christmas day!
