The Mermaid and the Simpleton
By Barbara Leonie Picard
Illustrated by Philip Gough

"These fifteen original stories are cast in the enchanted mode of fairy tales but not necessarily in their redemptive mood. Several end sadly ever after, others rather wistfully, and still others unresolvedly; and one in particular, “Little Lady Margaret,” bears a strangely gothic touch—she weaves her image into a tapestry and when in trouble takes permanent refuge there. That wise horse named “Heart of the Wind” guides a pair of forbidden lovers to safety in a land of peace and equality. . . death; and “The Ivory Box” offers similar solace to an errant young merchant of means."

"Goodness is more conventionally rewarded for this genre in the title story where a simpleton rescues an exhibited mermaid and she in turn rescues him from imprisonment, as well as in the pleasingly modest case of a village man who uses his well-earned “Three Wishes” to help three unfortunates and is granted fulfillment of his dreams besides. Humor graces the group only sparingly, the prose is undecorated, the morals implicit; the conceptions are imaginative, if evaporative, and for all their gossamer femininity not glib or tame."

HAROLD WAS MY KING
by Hilda Lewis

When Edward the Confessor dies, he leaves three claimants to the throne, Edgar the Atheling, Harold, Earl of Wessex, and William, Duke of Normandy, who would become known as William the Conqueror.

The year is 1065. Young Edmund Edmundson is page to Harold, one of the most powerful Earls of England. Edmund lives through eventful times – from the Battle of Hastings, the ascent of William the Conqueror to the unifying of England.

Through it all, Edmund gives us an unusual close-up view of exciting times in history, allowing us to get to know the people and choices they make in a very personal way.

This is an exciting, moving read. History buff or no, you will not be able to resist the adventures of Edmund.

Recommended for readers 12 and above.

In addition to Harold Was My King, Hilda Lewis also wrote three other wonderful historical fiction for teens: The Ship That Flew — the exciting time travel story; The Gentle Falcon — the exciting story of Isabella of France, child-bride to King Richard II and her arduous return to France after his death; and Here Comes Harry — a wonderful story of life with King Henry VI.

WHO COMES TO KING'S MOUNTAIN by Patricia Beatty

“Son of a Gaelic-speaking king's man, grandson of fey, far-seeing rebel Jonet Munn, Alexander McLeod finds himself fighting on both sides of the Revolution--once, willingly, as courier for the Swamp Fox Francis Marion, twice pressed into service under the "White Beast" Colonel Tarleton and, later, the "Red Beast" Major Patrick Ferguson. The well researched outlook on how the war affected a divided family in a backwater locality...a wee glimpse of South Carolina's Highland Scots, the braw gallant followers of the Swamp Fox, and the Gamecock General Sumter.” Kirkus Reviews

The Nickel-Plated Beauty
By Patricia Beatty

One of our favorite Beatty books!

“The earning-money-for-a-good-cause them is given fresh, amusing treatment in a lively story of the Kimball children in 1886 on the coast of Washington Territory. The good cause here is a present for their mother: a new and shining Sunshine Stove. Flavorful, fast-moving, easy to read, and often funny.” HORN BOOK

THE BOUND GIRL by Nan Denker
“Felicie Charreau, a bereft Huguenot refugee, comes to Boston in 1712, and, although she is deeply religious, the Todd family's strict Puritanism proves to be a confining atmosphere. Hannah Todd disapproves of her French dress and even of her French accent and decides to call her Felicity. The local tax collector, Stoneman, resents her and makes her life difficult."

"But through the months and years, Felicity does not lose her gaiety and manages to share it with the Todds and their children. In turn, the formative ideals of the new country become part of her and when the chance comes to return to her former life of wealth as the daughter of a Paris designer, she turns it down for marriage to the Todds' son, Nathan, and a rightful place in the young years of America. Seriously toned and uncomplicated.” KIRKUS REVIEW
