Rosio and the Children's Crusade (The Rosy Adventure Series)

By Ellen Herr Lancaster J.D.

In this, the sixth episode of the Rosy Adventure Series, a young girl must face the loss of her school and much of her village after an earthquake. Against great odds and a mysterious stranger, she, along with her beloved Gustavo, mobilizes the town children for action to raise money, rebuild and start over. Will her huge project be too much, will the money be stolen, or will she be the latest Shero? These books are perfect for reading to your children and grandchildren, expecially if you are interested in teaching them about generosity. The first book in the Rosy Adventure Series introduces Rosy, Santa's twin sister. She is the "flip-side" of the whole idea of getting gifts: she rewards children for being generous and brave. She delivers gold medallions to these children. The Rosy series makes it easy for kids to learn about generosity and to be generous, through therosyclub.com website.
