The Lewis & Clark murder of a Native American Blackfoot Indian changes the course of history. One white man raised by the Blackfeet—Yellow Hair—undertakes a treacherous adventure across the uncharted wilderness. Experience a panoramic journey across the pages of American history in this thrilling story of a proud, courageous man pushed to the limits of endurance. . . and of a country on the threshold of a bloody conflict that will change it forever. “Mr. Hubbard has reversed a time-honored formula and has given a thriller to which, at the end of every chapter or so, another paleface bites the dust.. . . [has] an enthusiasm, even a freshness and sparkle, decidedly rare in this type of romance.” —New York Times

"Readers who choose the book for the attraction of Navajo code talking and the heat of battle will come away with more than they ever expected to find."—Booklist, starred review Throughout World War II, in the conflict fought against Japan, Navajo code talkers were a crucial part of the U.S. effort, sending messages back and forth in an unbreakable code that used their native language. They braved some of the heaviest fighting of the war, and with their code, they saved countless American lives. Yet their story remained classified for more than twenty years. But now Joseph Bruchac brings their stories to life for young adults through the riveting fictional tale of Ned Begay, a sixteen-year-old Navajo boy who becomes a code talker. His grueling journey is eye-opening and inspiring. This deeply affecting novel honors all of those young men, like Ned, who dared to serve, and it honors the culture and language of the Navajo Indians. An ALA Best Book for Young Adults "Nonsensational and accurate, Bruchac's tale is quietly inspiring..."—School Library Journal

Son of the Morning Star is the nonfiction account of General Custer from the great American novelist Evan S. Connell. Custer's Last Stand is among the most enduring events in American history--more than one hundred years after the fact, books continue to be written and people continue to argue about even the most basic details surrounding the Little Bighorn. Evan S. Connell, whom Joyce Carol Oates has described as "one of our most interesting and intelligent American writers," wrote what continues to be the most reliable--and compulsively readable--account of the subject. Connell makes good use of his meticulous research and novelist's eye for the story and detail to re-create the heroism, foolishness, and savagery of this crucial chapter in the history of the West.

When disaster struck the beaver colony, Chip, the wise old leader, started out in search of a new home. It was a perilous journey, filled with danger from man and beast. But old Chip won through, to build another home for his faithful mate and their new family of kits. The beaver pond became a center of wilderness activity. It was a refuge for Trim, the deer, and her little fawn; for King, the trout, and his offspring; for the geese and the muskrats and the frogs. It was also a hunting ground for Wraith, the horned owl; for Ripple, the otter; and above all, for Glare, the lynx, who tried once too often to catch the old dam builder. "A spellbinder of a book -- informative and compelling -- in a holding tale of wilderness wildlife." -- Virginia Kirkus
