best friend suffer from an acute paranoia which leads to the
destruction of his starship being destroyed. Finally, in 'The

Wouldn't it be phenomenal if a man could travel back in time and
sit within a hostile Indian encampment, directly facing the
legendary Lakota Chief Crazy Horse and listen to him tell you about
the plight of his people? Or, what it would be like to stand on the
brink of the Kingsbury Grade overlooking the Carson Valley, while
conversing with the legendary Kit Carson, the man for whom the
valley was named? Or, to stand on a high bluff in the Rocky
Mountains and watch a Pony Express rider on his galloping pony
deliver the mail? Or to be close enough to the Wounded Knee
Massacre to hear the sounds of the gunfire? If you can imagine such
a man being sent back in time, Zack Gentry could have been that
person. Zack was also a man who loved his women, so there are a lot
of strong women characters in his story-including "Calamity Jane"
Cannary. This is not a traditional Western novel, it's a capsulated
history of the historical events and people during the time of
America's westward expansion (with a little bit of "legend" thrown
in ) It's a great read for both men and women-young adults to
old-timers.
A very special teddy bear family has three very special adventures.
They go fishing, to the County Fair, and on a ride to take
photographs. They are special teddies because they have been given
the gift of life. Nadine, Goldine, and Rowena are teddy bears. They
live with their grandfather, Rufus, on his farm. They have three
uncles who are very talented. Uncle Fauntleroy loves American
history. The girls love to hear him tell the story about Paul
Revere's midnight ride. Uncle Earl is a painter and Uncle Donald is
a wood carver. Parents and grandparents will appreciate the
nostalgic tale told and beautifully illustrated by the author,
Clarence Robert Tower.
