Sinopse

In "Boy Scouts on the Open Plains; Or, The Round-Up Not Ordered," G. Harvey Ralphson combines adventure with the values of early 20th-century Americana, presenting a vivid tapestry of camaraderie, self-reliance, and the great outdoors. The narrative follows a group of Boy Scouts as they embark on a thrilling journey across the expansive plains, navigating challenges that test their resourcefulness and teamwork. Ralphson'Äôs literary style, characterized by vivid descriptive passages and an engaging, action-driven plot, captures the spirit of the scouting movement during a time when it was a burgeoning cultural phenomenon aimed at youth development and outdoor education. G. Harvey Ralphson, a passionate advocate for youth and outdoor activities, was deeply influenced by the Boy Scouts' principles of leadership and moral character. His own experiences as an outdoor enthusiast and educator inspired his desire to instill these values in young readers through compelling stories that emphasize growth through adventure. The early 20th century was a pivotal time for the scouting movement, and Ralphson's work reflects a keen understanding of its cultural significance, aiming to inspire a generation through fiction. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of youth literature and early American culture. Offering insights into perseverance, friendship, and the joys of exploration, Ralphson'Äôs tale not only entertains but also imparts enduring lessons that resonate with readers of all ages. Its rich narrative and moral undertones make it a charming addition to the canon of children's adventure literature.

    The detective lay in bed with his eyes closed. But he couldn't sleep. He was thinking. He always thought best in bed. Especially with his eyes closed.  Something is going on in the forest: one of the animals is saying nasty things about the other forest creatures. But no one dares make a statement to the police. Who is the culprit?  Detective Gordon and his assistant Buffy must investigate! But this is a complicated case. The two police officers split the workload: Buffy questions the suspects, while Gordon stays in bed to think.  Once the investigation is over, Detective Gordon plans to go fishing and eat all the cakes he wants to. And maybe then Buffy will be appointed Police Chief! But that won't happen unless this case can be solved... Detective Gordon: A Complicated Case is a warm and humor-filled follow-up to the well-reviewed Detective Gordon: The First Case.

    A teenage girl’s guide to being a confident, classy lady of substance in a substance-less world. 
     
    In a world where women and girls are constantly under attack from the media with photoshopped, airbrushed images and popstars that tell them all they need to do is party all the time, kiss a lot of boys, be a “mean girl” to gain popularity, max their credit cards to buy designer clothes, etc., The Lost Art of Ladyhood communicates the counterpoint to those of our teen popstars. Happiness does not come from revealing all your skin, going clubbing every weekend where you get so drunk you don’t remember who you kissed, or maxing your credit cards just so you can buy the latest designer jeans. Happiness comes from living a life of character. 
     
    Teaching girls how to be ladylike has little to do with crossing your ankles and sipping tea correctly; it’s about giving them tools and skills they can use to serve others, to be grateful, to think positively, to set powerful goals, to protect themselves from toxic relationships, and to learn to love themselves enough to where they learn to love others. The Lost Art of Ladyhood is a road map for navigate your way to confidence, classy-ness, character, and learning the lost art of being a lady.

    This first volume of Bernard Evslin’s award-winning series introduces the monsters, demons, gods, and heroes of Greek mythology Athena, wise and powerful daughter of Zeus, is the most feared of all the goddesses. Poseidon, the “earth shaker,” rules the sea with his thunderous wrath. Each wants to control Olympus absolutely. Obsessed with destroying Poseidon, Athena summons her crows by day and owls by night to spy on his vast water realm. The long-simmering feud spawns a multitude of monsters, the most terrifying of which is the brass-headed colossus Amycus. This classic work features a sprawling cast of gods and mortals waging battle on land and by sea, from Zeus to the Titan god Prometheus, from Hades, who guards the gates of hell, to Circe, immortal weaver of spells, to the great war chief Ulysses, who sails in search of his long-lost home. Monsters of Greek Mythology brings to life fearsome creatures like giant, flame-spitting wingless dragons, a spider named Arachne, goats and swordfish endowed with magical properties, and the Cyclopes—one-eyed male and female goliaths even more powerful than the Titans.
