John, Paul, George and Ben

Book Cover from BN.com

Lane Smith

These lads were always getting into trouble for one reason or another. In other words, they took a few… liberties. And to be honest, they were not always appreciated. This is the story of five little lads before they became five really big Founding Fathers.

Crossing Bok Chitto

Book Cover from BN.com

Tim Tingle

The river Bok Chitto divides the Choctaw nation from the plantations of Mississippi. If a slave escaped and made his way across Bok Chitto, the slave was free, the slave owner could not follow. That was the law. But Bok Chitto holds a secret: a rock pathway that lies just below the surface of the water. When a slave boy and his family are befriended by a Choctaw girl, the pathway becomes part of an ingenious plan that enables the slaves to cross the river to freedom-in plain view of a band of slave hunters during a full moon.

Grade Level: 4-6
