The Story of Roger Hardfoot: A Canadian Wilderness Adventure, 1891

By Joy Sheldon

"Och, Laddie, are ye awake, noo?" Intriguing words in the old Scots dialect of Jeb McLeod, fur trapper and trader. This big ol' shaggy mountain man saves Roger as he flees through hostile forests to escape his seven evil brothers. Climb Ol' Baldy (twice) with this courageous boy as he survives a vicious mama bear attack and a raging fever. Find out how he's saved by Jerry Potts, Metis scout and real-life historical figure. Find out whether he ever reaches his goal: the Little White House in the Vale that he saw from the mountaintop. Solve the mystery of the old silver pocket watch and help Roger meet his destiny. To the Parents and Grandparents: Are kids today losing the fine Art of Reading? Would you like a book your child can really sink his/her teeth into? Are you tired of seeing kids overly involved with media or too-simplistic literature? Then take them back to 1891 when mountain men still roamed the forests. Help your child learn about life in Pioneer times from wheat harvesting to snare trapping to whiskey distilling. If you'd like your child to read a heck of a good story while learning some interesting Canadian History- then, The Story of Roger Hardfoot is for you....
