When a flood damages the schoolhouse, Andi is ecstatic—until her family sends her to a stuffy San Francisco school for young ladies. The plight of a small, Chinese slave girl captures her heart, sending Andi and her new friends into the dark alleys of Chinatown, where danger greater than she’s ever known waits to swallow them up.

In addition to the book, the winner will ALSO receive the Journey through Learning Lapbook!

From A Journey Through Learning you will get the lapbook that goes along with this chapter book. It is 3 folders big and includes extra study pages such as the Fresno Flood, Chinatown, the Transcontinental Railroad, Streetcars and Cable Cars, the Chinese Slave Trade, Chinese Writing, Golden Gate Park, Life at Young Ladies’ Academy, and more!

Andrea “Andi” Carter never tries to get into trouble, but somehow it always manages to find her.  Living on the Circle C Ranch near Fresno, California, in the 1800s–the heyday of the Old West–provides Andi with more than her fair share of adventures.  Andi’s life is never boring.  Her hair-raising escapades always end up teaching her valuable lessons about life, friends and family.

In this book, Andi nearly tramples her new teacher in a reckless, impromtpu horse race down the main street of Fresno, California–not a good way to begin the fall 1880 school term.  Her troubles multiply when she must decide whether she should deliberately walk into a dangerous situation to rescue the teacher’s mean-spirited, trouble-making daughter.

In addition to this delightful book, the winner will also receive the Journey Through Learning lapbook!


Tie history and literature into the Circle C Adventures by using lapbooks by A Journey Through Learning. (www.AJourneyThroughLearning.com) Each lapbook is made using three colorful file folders. The packet includes everything students need to create the lapbook: study guides, full-color pictures for the mini-booklets, the file folders, and detailed instructions on how to put them together. Each lapbook takes about a month to complete.  Extra study pages, such as School in teh 1800s, Proper Etiquette of teh 1800s, Cowhands, Ways of Transportation, What is a roundup?, What is a Corral?, Horse Safety, Psalm 121, History of Baseball, History of the Sheriff and Much More!
