Synopsis

In "Two Young Lumbermen: Or, From Maine to Oregon for Fortune," Edward Stratemeyer crafts a gripping adventure narrative that encapsulates the spirit of American enterprise and resilience in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of the burgeoning lumber industry, this novel follows the journey of two enterprising youths who traverse vast landscapes from Maine to Oregon in search of fortune. Stratemeyer's distinctive literary style combines clear, direct prose with vivid descriptions, creating a sense of immediacy and adventure that is characteristic of early American literature, reflecting the nation's westward expansion and the quest for personal success. Edward Stratemeyer was a prolific author and publisher, best known for creating popular children's series such as The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. His upbringing in a working-class family and early exposure to the American wilderness significantly influenced his thematic choices. Stratemeyer aimed to inspire young readers, embedding moral lessons within exhilarating tales of adventure and perseverance, drawing on his own belief in hard work and the American Dream. This book is a must-read for those interested in American literature, young adult adventure narratives, and historical representations of industrial transformation. Stratemeyer's engaging storytelling not only entertains but also immerses the reader in a formative era of American history, making it a valuable addition to both personal and academic libraries.

    Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep, 
    And can't tell where to find them; 
    Leave them alone, and they'll come home, 
    Bringing their tails behind them. 
    Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep, 
    And dreamt she heard them bleating; 
    But when she awoke, she found it a joke, 
    For they were still all fleeting. 
     This beloved nursery rhyme tells a story that is both a bit scary (she lost her sheep!) and funny (they lost their tails!). The poor tiny girl, trying to do a job that is quite hard for her with her short legs, becomes bewildered. But help is there in the shape of an old lady who first plays a trick on her, telling her that her sheep have lost their tails and she must find them and somehow put them back on. The distraught little BoPeep searches everywhere and when she finally does find the missing tails discovers the joke. But all ends well when the old woman tells her she doesn't need to sew them on because they didn't have any tails to begin with. Everyone has a good laugh and BoPeep lovingly hugs each sheep as they 'come home, wagging their tails behind them.'
