Synopsis

In "The Go Ahead Boys and the Racing Motor-Boat," Ross Kay crafts an exhilarating narrative centered on young adventurers eager to conquer the challenges of speed and competition on water. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, the novel is infused with themes of camaraderie, ingenuity, and the thrill of innovation as the boys confront both natural and mechanical obstacles. Kay employs lively prose and an engaging, straightforward storytelling style that mirrors the upbeat spirit of youthful exploration, making it accessible to a broad audience while evoking the era's competitive spirit. Ross Kay, an author dedicated to capturing the essence of youth and adventure, draws on his keen understanding of American boyhood, engineering, and outdoor activities to inform his writing. His works, including this particular title, echo a nostalgic longing for simpler times and vibrant, imaginative play, likely influenced by his own childhood experiences. This novel serves as a testament to the values of determination, teamwork, and the relentless pursuit of dreams, resonating deeply with both its time and contemporary readers. I highly recommend "The Go Ahead Boys and the Racing Motor-Boat" not only for its thrilling plot but also for its rich historical context and character development. This book is a captivating read for anyone interested in the dynamic fusion of adventure and technology, as well as for educators and parents seeking literature that promotes resilience and teamwork among young readers.

    Twelve-year-old Bone possesses a Gift that allows her to see the stories in everyday objects in this supernatural historical mystery. 
     
     
     
    In southern Virginia coal-mining town in 1942, Bone Phillips has just reached the age when most members of her family discover their Gift. Bone has a Gift that disturbs her; she can sense stories when she touches an object that was important to someone. She sees both sad and happy—the death of a deer in an arrowhead, the pain of a beating in a baseball cap, and the sense of joy in a fiddle. There are also stories woven into her dead mama's butter—yellow sweater—stories Bone yearns for and fears. When Bone receives a note that says her mama's Gift is what killed her, Bone tries to uncover the truth. Could Bone's Gift do the same? Here is a beautifully resonant coming-of-age tale about learning to trust the power of your own story.
