A Horse Named Lucky: Adventures in the 1921 Flood

By Eileen Tannich Gose

A Horse Named Lucky; Adventures in the 1921 Pueblo Flood is a "Read and Write" activity book about the adventures of Lucky, the display horse in Frazier's Saddlery Shop in Pueblo, Colorado. The 1921 Pueblo Flood really occurred and was one of the most devastating floods in Colorado. Lucky the Horse now "lives" at the Southeastern Colorado Heritage Museum in Pueblo. While reading of Lucky's adventures, children will learn about the people and places of Pueblo. With this book they also will learn to write a "Five Sentence Story" inspired by their own adventures. In a Five Sentence Story the five sentences make a complete story. The character, setting, problem and solution are all included in those five sentences. By adding a few more sentences under each topic sentence, the story becomes more interesting, and the Five Sentence Story will become a Five Paragraph Story.This 8" X 11" workbook has five original illustrations perfect for coloring. Additionally, blank pages and templates are provided to guide young writers in creating and illustrating their own story.
