Sinopse

In "The Young Ship Builder," Sophie Swett crafts a compelling narrative that immerses readers in the world of maritime craftsmanship through the eyes of a young protagonist. The novel intricately weaves themes of ambition, innovation, and self-discovery in the context of early 20th-century America. Swett's prose is rich and vivid, evoking the sights, sounds, and challenges of shipbuilding, while her thoughtful character development allows readers to engage deeply with the protagonist's journey from naivety to expertise, illuminating the broader societal shifts of the era. Sophie Swett, a notable figure in children's literature, drew upon her own experiences and love for the sea to write this enchanting story. Known for her ability to blend educational elements with engaging narratives, Swett sought to inspire young readers to appreciate the world of engineering and craftsmanship. Her background and keen interest in maritime culture uniquely positioned her to portray the aspirations of youth in an industrializing society, making this work a significant part of her literary oeuvre. "The Young Ship Builder" is a must-read for young readers and those who cherish the spirit of invention and the allure of adventure. It not only serves as an entertaining tale but also as a motivational reflection on pursuing one's passion, making it a timeless addition to the libraries of readers both young and old.

    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.

    Lauren has a secret. Colby has a problem. But when they find each other, everything falls into place. From the author of the Charmed Life series. 
     
    In alternating chapters of verse and prose, new girl Lauren and football hero Colby come together, fall apart, and build something stronger than either of them thought possible—something to truly believe in. 
     
    “Writing in alternating viewpoints, with Lauren’s chapters unfolding in free verse and Colby’s in prose, Schroeder (Falling for You) offers a thoughtful, straightforward, and fairly chaste romance between two kind, generous teens—one burdened by her past, one burdened by his future.” —Publishers Weekly 
     
    “The alternating chapters of Lauren’s poetry and Colby’s conversational prose are well written and help reveal the characters refreshingly unique perspectives, as well as their growth in positive ways . . . This light, fast-paced story will delight romance fans looking for a fun, hopeful read.” —School Library Journal 
     
    “Familiar characters and a quiet plot are elevated by poetry that is as beautiful as it is varied. Lovely in its details.” —Kirkus Reviews
