In A New and Astonishing Life Of Benjamin Franklin As Written by His
Good Mouse AMOS, young readers will discover that while the good Mr.
Franklin got considerable credit, many of his most important
contributions really originated with Amos, a less-than-humble

Lawson and published first in 1939, but discerning readers ever
since have figured that it's the mouse who's the fellow with the ...
tale. 
Moody brings to life the story of a knobby-kneed little colt called
Seabiscuit, who against all odds became one of the most celebrated
racehorses of all time. Although Seabiscuit was the grandson of the
legendary Man O' War, he was neither handsome nor graceful. His head
was too big, his legs too short, and his gallop was awkward. It took
the keen eyes of trainer Tom Smith to recognize the heart, courage,
and gallant determination of Seabiscuit. Moving and inspirational,
Come on Seabiscuit! is a reminder of the qualities that make a real
American champion.

In 1853, San Francisco newsboy Ready Gates lives up to his nickname.
He's ready for anything--whether it's shouting the headlines from a
street corner, sneaking onto a river boat, or tracking down a
missing gold miner. But when he crosses the bay to watch the
ascension of the first balloon ever brought to California, his
adventures suddenly take an unexpected turn. Although this is
not a classic title, it was chosen for its living book quality and
classic feel.
Welcome to Centerburg! Where you can win a hundred dollars by eating
all the doughnuts you want; where houses are built in a day; and
where a boy named Homer Price can foil four slick bandits using

On an island off the coasts of Virginia and Maryland lives a
centuries-old band of wild ponies. Among them is the most mysterious
of all, Phantom, a rarely seen mare that eludes all efforts to
capture her--that is, until a young boy and girl lay eyes on her and
determine that they can't live without her. The frenzied roundup
that follows on the next "Pony Penning Day" does indeed bring
Phantom into their lives, in a way they never would have suspected.
Phantom would forever be a creature of the wild. But her gentle,
loyal colt Misty is another story altogether.
Here are some more heartfelt stories from Grandma's attic. Heartfelt
pieces of a day gone
by . . . told by that natural storyteller of all loving families -
Grandma, the one who never forgets the fun and laughter of days
past. These marvelous tales are faithfully recalled for the delight
of young and old alike, a touchstone to another day when life was
simpler, perhaps richer; when the treasures of family life and love
were passed from generation to generation by a child's questions . .
. and the legends that followed enlarged our faith.© 2008 Heart of Dakota Publishing
