And she finds out TrackFinders is designed for kids who need extra'support.'Instead of feeling free as a bird, Ginny feels trapped... and betrayed.As her friendships with her fellow campers deepen on the trail, though, Ginny starts to see new sides of them—and of herself.

Kids will love every character—or love to hate them—and will finish the book feeling like they're leaving friends behind. Perfect for:Animal loversKids who love adventure and natureTeachers and librarians

Excerpt: “The river is coming up at the rate of an inch an hour!” announced Mr. Miller, reading from the evening paper. “At one o'clock it was eighteen feet, and reports from the north indicate the highest water ever known on the Upper Mississippi.” “Hurrah!” cheered Ned, who was sitting on the porch steps, waiting for supper, and had heard through the open window. “Why, Ned!” rebuked his mother. “Think of all the suffering this means!” “Well, anyway, the river's booming,” ventured Ned, abashed. “It's even with the railroad tracks. I was down looking at it after school.” “I'm sorry for the poor people on the flats—the lowlands must be flooded,” continued Mrs. Miller. “But they tie their houses to trees with ropes, and move into the second stories, and go about on rafts,” explained Ned, to whom such a plight was not without fun.'

Excerpt:'I was sitting right that minute in a big white rowboat that was docked at the end of the pier which ran far out into the water of the lake. From where I was sitting, in the stern of the boat, I could see the two brown tents where the rest of the Sugar Creek Gang was supposed to be taking a short afternoon nap—which was one of the rules about camp life none of us liked very well, but which was good for us on account of we always had more pep for the rest of the day and didn't get too tired before night.'

Excerpt:'I guess I never did get tired thinking about all the interesting and exciting things which had happened to the Sugar Creek Gang when we'd gone camping far up in the North. One of the happiest memories was of the time when Poetry, who is the barrel-shaped member of our gang, and I were lost out in the forest, and while we were trying to get unlost we met a very cute little brown-faced Indian boy whose name was Snow-in-the-face, and his big Indian brother whose name was Eagle Eye.'

Excerpt:'I tell you, when you just know there's going to be some exciting trouble in the next twelve minutes or less, you have to make your red head do some quick clear thinking, if you can. Not a one of the Sugar Creek Gang knew what was going to happen, but the very minute I heard that outboard motor roaring out on the lake, the sound sounding like it was coming straight toward the shore and the old icehouse we were all in, I said to us, “Quick, Gang! Let's get out of here and get this ransom money back to camp!” Little Jim's gunny sack had a lot of money in it right that minute, which we'd dug up out of the sawdust in that abandoned old icehouse. The gunny sack was nearly filled with stuffed fish,—the big and middle-sized northern and wall-eyed pike with thousands and thousands of dollars sewed up inside.'

(Excerpt): “There is a particular spot in those wild regions which lie somewhere near the northern parts of Baffin's Bay, where Nature seems to have set up her workshop for the manufacture of icebergs, where Polar bears, in company with seals and Greenland whales, are wont to gambol, and where the family of Jack Frost may be said to have taken permanent possession of the land. One winter day, in the early part of the eighteenth century, a solitary man might have been seen in that neighbourhood, travelling on foot over the frozen sea in a staggering, stumbling, hurried manner, as if his powers, though not his will, were exhausted. The man's hairy garb of grey sealskin might have suggested that he was a denizen of those northern wilds, had not the colour of his face, his brown locks, and his bushy beard, betokened him a native of a very different region.'

Classic adventure novel. According to Wikipedia:'Edward Sylvester Ellis (April 11, 1840 – June 20, 1916) was an American author who was born in Ohio and died at Cliff Island, Maine. Ellis was a teacher, school administrator, and journalist, but his most notable work was that that he performed as author of hundreds of dime novels that he produced under his name and a number of noms de plume. Notable works by Ellis include The Huge Hunter, or the Steam Man of the Prairies and Seth Jones, or the Captives of the Frontier. Internationally, Edward S. Ellis is probably best known for his Deerhunter novels widely read by young boys up to the 1950s (together with works by James Fenimore Cooper and Karl May). In the mid-1880s, after a fiction-writing career of some thirty years, Ellis eventually turned his pen to more serious works of biography, history, and persuasive writing.'

Mas agora, quase um ano depois daquele dia fatídico, era o momento de abraçarmos a vida novamente. Retomá-la por onde paramos no outono passado. Meus pais pediram minha opinião e lhes disse que gostaria muito de voltar ao camping às margens do rio, onde sempre nos divertimos bastante. Tento me recordar dos momentos legais, mas aquele mal-estar sempre volta. Tudo aquilo que minha irmã e eu aprontamos. E tudo aquilo que ainda íamos aprontar, mas que não será mais possível. Nunca mais.
