Announcing a new book that will enthrall your homeschooler while providing a curricular bridge for social studies, science, and language arts through a creative curricular guide!
JOURNEYS; AN ICE AGE ADVENTURE
12 year-old Mark Jamison is a thinker and a worrier. 10 year-old Barry is attuned to nature, but his focus quickly shifts from one item to the next. The brothers’ lives are further complicated by family tragedies. Their dad’s deployment to Afghanistan and their mom’s illness both ended badly. Rather than a wonderful journey, life has been hard. But when the boys discover a mastodon tooth and a spear point in the Baraboo Hills, powerful forces are unleashed that carry them across ages and propel them onto the adventure of two lifetimes. The brothers journey with mastodons and Paleo-Indians amid the landscape of Ice Age Wisconsin. They face giant predatory mammals, as well as predators of the human variety. They witness acts of courage and sacrifice. Through it all, the boys gain more of the strength, wisdom, and hope needed to face the obstacles of life’s journey.
Journeys; An Ice Age Adventure inspires excitement, laughter, and tears. It gently strikes a chord of awareness for endangered species in our modern age. And above all, it reminds us of the importance of hope and a sense of wonder.
Available in paperback and ebook versions.
