Thirty-year-old John Balwin has just lost his beloved fianc e to cancer, and he decides it is time to leave New York City, the only home he has ever known. He will take a thirty-day trip across the United States to start a fresh new life in San Francisco, California, where a new job and, perhaps, a new love awaits him. The only thing left to do is to say good-bye to his beloved city, and he decides on a last visit to Central Park. There he meets a woman who will change his life forever-seventy-two-year-old Harriet Dinsmore. He agrees to bring her along on his cross-country trek, and their journey begins. Along the way, the pair pick up two more senior women, and together the four continue westward, transforming from a band of strangers into a family. But along the way, Harriet is plagued by visions of the dead-such as Civil War soldiers at Gettysburg. One apparition in particular begins to haunt Harriet over and over again. A woman is beckoning to her, calling for Harriet to join her in the spirit realm. Could the woman be an omen that Harriet is not long for this world?

Harriet has an amazing superpower--when there's trouble, she can magically summon the dogs from her family's rescue shelter to save the day. Meet Harriet Hound. She's eight years old, lives in a town called Labrador, Australia, is autistic, and LOVES dogs But Harriet has something else that makes her super: the power to summon the dogs from her family's rescue shelter every time there's trouble afoot. Whether it's a carnival catastrophe, a sudden storm, or vanishing vegetables, Harriet and her best dog friends use their talents and problem-solving skills to help out. Just like Harriet herself, every dog has its own special strengths--like Greta the German shepherd, who is an excellent watchdog, and Hans and Helm the huskies, who are great at pulling carts. Even Bob the bulldog gets called to action when Harriet's classmates need a dog who is slow and calm to help them walk carefully through the mud and not be afraid of a rainstorm. Harriet's infectious enthusiasm, along with plenty of lists, dog facts, dynamic text design, and even a guide to rescuing a dog, make this a superpowered read.

Harriet Tubman served a pivotal role in leading slaves to freedom in the decade before the Civil War. This biography offers a demythologized chronicle of her life and work, providing information about her life as a slave, role as conductor on the Underground Railroad, work as a military scout during the Civil War, and postwar activism for blacks and women. Harriet Tubman: A Life in American History provides valuable context that situates Harriet Tubman against the backdrop of the slavery debate in antebellum America, and the hardships endured by ex-slaves in postbellum America. As such, the timeframe covers nearly a full century, from the first quarter of the nineteenth to the first quarter of the twentieth. In addition to ten biographical chapters and a short timeline, Harriet Tubman includes an interpretive essay reflecting on Tubman's importance in American history, an appendix of primary documents about Tubman's life and work, a bibliography, and a number of sidebars and short commentaries embedded in the text that invite readers to explore connections between Tubman's life and political, intellectual, and social culture.
