Beschreibung

In 'Four Afloat: Being the Adventures of the Big Four on the Water' by Ralph Henry Barbour, readers are treated to a delightful story of four friends who embark on a series of nautical adventures. Barbour's writing is characterized by its vivid descriptions of life on the water, making readers feel as if they are right there with the characters. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, the book provides a glimpse into the leisurely pursuits of well-to-do young men of the time, while also touching on themes of friendship and camaraderie. Barbour's storytelling keeps readers engaged from start to finish, with plenty of plot twists and exciting escapades along the way. Ralph Henry Barbour, a prolific American author known for his works of young adult fiction, draws on his own experiences with sailing and outdoor adventures to craft a tale that is both entertaining and authentic. His passion for the sea shines through in the intricately woven details of sailing and boat life, capturing the attention of readers of all ages. I highly recommend 'Four Afloat' to readers who enjoy classic adventure stories with a nostalgic feel. With its engaging narrative and well-developed characters, this book is sure to appeal to anyone who appreciates a well-written tale of friendship and adventure.

    It’s the dawn of an important new day in America. Young readers, grab the reins and join Rush Revere, Liberty the horse, and the whole time-traveling crew in this patriotic historical adventure that takes you on an exciting trip to the past to see our remarkable nation’s most iconic symbols up close and personal!“Rush Revere here, along with my chatty horse, Liberty! Wait a minute...Liberty? Where did he go?” “Reporting for duty, Captain Revere!” “Liberty, where did you get that spinach smoothie?” *Slurp* Well, he certainly didn’t get it from 1787—that’s where we’re rush, rush, rushing off to next with our enthusiastic young friends in the Time-Traveling Crew (but not before causing a major security incident at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.!) A funny case of mistaken identity and a wild chase through the busy streets of Philadelphia will lead us to the famously introverted Father of our Constitution, James Madison, and the heated secret debates over the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Fast-forward a few years, and we’ll help his brave wife, Dolley, risk her life to save an important portrait from the White House as the British set Washington afire! What greater symbol of our exceptional nation’s hard-won freedoms than the Star-Spangled Banner, sewn by American icon Betsy Ross? Perhaps Francis Scott Key can explain what inspired him to pay tribute to our glorious flag by writing our beautiful national anthem. But watch out for the bombs bursting in air, because when we reach 1814, we’ll be front and center at a major battle to defend our liberty. Jump back in the saddle with me, Rush Revere, and the Time-Traveling Crew, as my trusty horse, Liberty, takes us on another flying leap through American history into a past teeming with heroes and extraordinary citizens who have so much to teach us about patriotism. All you need to bring is your curiosity about the birth of our democracy—I’ve got plenty of tricornered hats for everyone!

    In search of fresh grass, a pet guinea pig embarks on an unforgettable journey in this charming children’s book.  The Great Adventure of Piggy the Peruvian Guinea Pig is based on a true story about Piggy, a Peruvian guinea pig, who is lost in the Virginia wilderness. It teaches children that the greatest adventures come when least expected, and that you have to be courageous even when you are afraid. It also teaches us that sometimes we learn the most about ourselves when we are forced into situations that we are unprepared for, like Piggy, who learns he is bold and brave when faced with adversity.
