Sinossi

In "The Outdoor Girls at Wild Rose Lodge; Or, The Hermit of Moonlight Falls," Laura Lee Hope invites readers into a thrilling adventure that expertly intertwines youthful camaraderie with the mystique of nature. Set against the backdrop of an enchanting wilderness, the narrative follows a group of spirited girls as they embark on summer escapades filled with mystery and discovery. Hope'Äôs writing style is marked by vivid descriptions and lively dialogue that captures the innocence and curiosity of adolescence, while engaging with themes of friendship, resilience, and the excitement of the unknown, reflective of the early 20th century'Äôs burgeoning leisure culture and fascination with the outdoors. Laura Lee Hope, the pseudonym for the Stratemeyer Syndicate, reflected the era'Äôs evolving perspectives on female empowerment, presenting adventurous young women who actively pursue agency in their explorations. This book exemplifies Hope's commitment to portraying strong, resourceful heroines amidst the backdrop of nature'Äôs untamed beauty, likely influenced by her own experiences growing up in a rapidly modernizing society where young women sought autonomy and adventure. I highly recommend "The Outdoor Girls at Wild Rose Lodge" not just for its engaging plot, but for its historical context that resonates with contemporary themes of exploration and friendship. Ideal for both young readers and those nostalgic for their own youthful adventures, this book offers a delightful escape into a world of camaraderie and courage.

Randolph Caldecott - The Man Who...

Leonard S. Marcus

Randolph Caldecott is best known as the namesake of the award that honors picture book illustrations, and in this inventive biography, leading children's literature scholar Leonard Marcus examines the man behind the medal. In an era when the steam engine fueled an industrial revolution and train travel exploded people's experience of space and time, Caldecott was inspired by his surroundings to capture action, movement, and speed in a way that had never before been seen in children's picture books. Thoroughly researched and featuring extensive archival material and a treasure trove of previously unpublished drawings, including some from Caldecott's very last sketchbook, Leonard Marcus's luminous biography shows why Caldecott was indeed the father of the modern picture book and how his influence lives on in the books we love today.

What real parents are saying … 
“My high-energy toddler twins are asleep in 15 minutes. Bedtime used to take nearly 2 hours—but with Rocket’s calming narration and the beautiful stories from the Yawnimals box set, our nights have totally transformed. They YAWN on cue when Rocket YAWNS, and they’re asleep before the story ends.”  
- Heather Schalk, Toddler Toolkit Podcast, Mother of 2 toddlers 
“Their favorites are Amanda the Panda (they love the journey), Benny the Bear (truly magical for relaxation), and Lincoln the Lizard (hello, Monster Trucks!).” 
“The stories are soothing, my toddlers love the illustrations, and this is now our must-have bedtime ritual. I can’t recommend this enough—it’s a total lifesaver for tired parents.”
