Overview

Companion books, two anthologies of inspired original stories by both highly regarded established writers & brilliant new authors. These fresh new stories, selected by experienced teachers, respond to a wide range of young reader interests. Action stories of adventure, animals, surprise, nostalgia, fantasy, heroic deeds, & modern stories based on African proverbs "grab" & hold attention. Reading expert's comment: "Your anthologies are truly worth reading. I would like to see them in libraries & personal collections. They offer some high interest, low vocabulary literature for young readers & some captivating read-aloud material for teachers & parents. Through an assortment of exciting escapades involving runaways, rogues & renegades, the authors spin their tales of quiet heroism & bold confrontations. Older students with their own rebellious tendencies should relate to the 15-year-old who befirends a washed-out boxer or an 8th grader who just can't stay out of trouble in a new school. If these stories were indeed collected to 'compel readers to turn the page, eager to find out what happens next,' that goal has been accomplished."
