About this ebook
The author says, As an experienced teacher, I realize how important reading is to the development of young minds. This book develops reading skills, explores history and, teaches students social skills. I believe that all reading should teach as well as entertain. I feel strongly that a real, physical book in the hands of a child is essential for appreciation of literature, especially in our world of technology.

Sandra grew up in Putnam, Connecticut where she was a student in the class of Gertrude Warner, author of the Boxcar Children series. The first book in the series was published when Sandra was in Miss Warner’s first grade class in 1942. Miss Warner became her mentor, first as teacher then as author. Sandra became a teacher before trying her hand at publishing. She says, “After keeping my promise to myself to become a teacher, and teaching for 57 years, I decided I should keep my second promise—to become a published author, just like my mentor. Miss Warner took time to pique the interest of children. We experienced the learning.” Mrs. Ames is continuing her teaching career and now taking time to write children’s stories. She lives in Putnam, Connecticut where she enjoys the rural life of her childhood. She desires to share the simple things of life with her reading audience. “Nature has a way of bringing things together and teaching us lessons,” she says.
