Ride a Summer Wind--
Lutie McBride and his granddaughter, Buddie, (and their small town of Whistler, Indiana) come to life in this captivating mystery for kids. Novelist Ann Cavera brilliantly weaves a stolen vase, Abraham Lincoln, secret caves, a teenage crush, mandolins and banjos, and much more together, resulting in a multi-faceted story that kids will love. Cavera doesn't shy away from the grim reality of poverty and loss, and-as honest and broken as some of her characters are-readers are left with a sense of hope as well as a reminder of the value of regarding others with respect and love.
-Jennifer Grant, award-winning author of many books for adults and for children, including Finding Calm in Nature.
