Synopsis

In "The Young Ship-Builders of Elm Island," Elijah Kellogg crafts a compelling narrative that intricately weaves adventure and personal growth against the backdrop of the maritime industry in the 19th century. The story follows a group of young boys as they delve into the world of shipbuilding, emphasizing themes of teamwork, ingenuity, and resilience. Kellogg's vivid descriptions and authentic dialogue create a rich literary tapestry, capturing the spirit of coastal life while reflecting the burgeoning American ethos of industry and innovation during this transformative period. Elijah Kellogg, a noted author of juvenile fiction and an advocate for moral and educational narratives, drew upon his own upbringing in coastal Maine, which immersed him in shipbuilding culture and maritime lore. His experiences as a teacher and involvement in local communities instilled in him a passion for imparting values of diligence, camaraderie, and adventure to young readers. These elements profoundly influenced his storytelling, making his work resonate with both contemporary and future generations. This captivating tale is highly recommended for readers seeking both entertainment and a deeper understanding of the early American maritime industry. It serves not only as an engaging story for young adults but also as a historical reflection on the spirit of invention and the importance of mentorship, making it an invaluable addition to any library.

    Milly wants to win a medal for Irish dancing, just like her neighbour Abbie Horgan. But Irish dancing takes talent, and Milly's skills are in short supply. No matter – a second-hand wig, a fancy frock and a pair of poodle socks ensure she at least looks the part.

    From sick students to sprained ankles, it's quite the performance from Milly and co. The feis is turning into a fiasco …  and they'll be lucky to get home in one piece, let alone with any medals!

    Finn McCool was born a giant with the gift of Celtic wit but—at least in his youth—is prone to bad luck. One day McCool will become the chieftain of Fianna hunter-warriors, and the greatest Irish folk hero of all time. But until then, he has some growing up to do. In The Green Hero, renowned mythologist Bernard Evslin recounts the tales of Finn McCool’s early years: his attempts to woo Murtha, the girl he fell in love with when he was just three days old; his torment by the Fish-hag; his struggles with the whims of the goddess Amara; and more. This amusing collection retells the early exploits of a man who became a legend.
