Beschreibung

An unforgettable story of a little girl growing up in the exhilarating time after the big Alaska gold rushes.Winner of the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical FictionBo's family is not the usual, ordinary sort of family, because she didn't get it in the usual, ordinary way.She was headed for a lonely Alaska orphanage when she won the hearts of two tough gold miners who set out to raise her, enthusiastically helped by the other miners, the good-time girls, and all the kind people of the nearby Eskimo village on the Koyukuk River.Bo learns Eskimo along with English, is involved in the lives of her friends at Ballard Creek ,helps in the cookshack, learns to polka, rides along with Big Annie and her dog team. And there's always some kind of excitement : a bi-plane landing, the first bulldozer, a roaming bear, the dog-team mail delivery, and a lost little boy whose father has died on the winter trail.“A warm tale set in an Alaskan gold-mining town. . . . Bo is an enduring Pollyana in a parka.” —Kirkus ReviewsIllustrations by LeUyen Pham

    The Maccabee home was a happy one, but Mrs. Maccabee’s five sons were often losing things. “Mom, have you seen my spear?” one would say. “Your things don’t grow legs and walk away,” Mrs. Maccabee would sigh, pointing to the missing items. “Where you leave them is where they stay.” When her five sons go to war against the Greeks, Mrs. Maccabee’s lessons stay with them. Recalling their mom’s words, the brothers remember where they’d last seen the oil for the Temple menorah. A miracle indeed.

    It STILL Sucks to Be the Ender Dragon
     
    I finally escaped The End and found a semi-peaceful life giving joyrides to baby villagers… until I saw something impossible: another dragon in the Overworld.
     
    A red dragon. And he’s not majestic or mysterious. He’s the rudest, grossest, most irritating mob I’ve ever met. He’s also intent on destroying the village and every mob in it.
     
    The villagers are panicking. So I guess it’s up to me to stop him.
     
    Being the villain was bad. But being the hero? That still sucks.
