Almanzo Wilder is growing up on the farm, helping his father with all the chores and planting and harvesting. But he isn’t allowed to go near the young colts, for fear that he would startle them or teach them bad habits. More than anything, Almanzo longs to have his own colt to break and ride, but his father says he is too young. Year after year, Almanzo works in the barn and in the fields, determined to prove to his father that he is ready to have his own colt.

Carter and Sadie are brother and sister, but they rarely see each other, since Sadie lives with their grandparents while Carter and his dad travel the globe researching ancient artifacts. On one of their rare visits, their dad takes them to the British Museum to see the Rosetta Stone. They discover that their dad has connections with Ancient Egypt and he is working to release the Egyptian gods that he believes are trapped in the Rosetta Stone. It turns out that the ancient legends of magic are real, and the Egyptian gods are breaking free. A secret society called the House of Life is determined to incarcerate the gods again, and Carter and Sadie are caught in the middle.

This is my umpteenth time reading this book, and I enjoyed it just as much as I did when I was a girl! There’s a simple charm to these stories of pioneer life that invites you in.

Little Nutbrown Hare and Big Nutbrown Hare take turns trying to demonstrate how much they love each other. The little hare stretches out his little arms and says I love you this much! But then the big hare stretches out their arms a lot wider and says I love you THIS much! No matter what little hare does, they can’t hop higher, or stretch taller, or say anything to show their love, without the big hare saying something bigger and higher and taller. Finally, they say their love reaches all the way to the moon, and the big hare adds “to the moon and back”.
