From the Publisher:
A little dog walked along the road.
A white dog with brown ears and a brown spot on his head.
It was a puppy.
But he was not happy.
He was hungry and there was nobody to take care of him.
Two storks had built a nest with branches and straw on it. Mother stork perched on the edge of the nest. She kept watch over her children. She also looked around at the wide world.
When you are so high, you can see far over the green pastures.
When young Francis Osbaldistone discovers that his vicious and scheming cousin Rashleigh has designs both on his father's business and his beloved Diana Vernon, he turns in desperation to Rob Roy for help. Chieftain of the MacGregor clan, Rob Roy is a brave and fearless man, able and cunning. But he is also an outlaw with a price on his head, and as he and Francis join forces to pursue Rashleigh, he is constantly aware that he, too, is being pursued—and could be captured at any moment. Set on the eve of the 1715 Jacobite uprising, Rob Roy brilliantly evokes a Scotland on the verge of rebellion.
A Story of Old Geneva
“Josef . . . the servant, ye know,” said Jeannot, “told us how the soldiers of Captain Brunaulieu’s corps, as they came to a halt outside the town, found amongst them a boy who was evidently a Genevan. They seized him, and brought him to the Captain. He said he was an Englishman, which, I suppose, is another kind of heretic . . . oh, I crave pardon of your Worthinesses . . .”
“Never mind our Worthinesses, but go on with thy story,” said someone.
“The Captain would have had him run through at once. But the holy Friar who was with them — Friar Alexander the Scotchman, they called him — bade spare him, as he might be of use in the town for a guide. ’Twas just then that Josef, who told us the tale, came up, being sent on a message . . .”
The Young Burning Hearts Series is a series of fascinating independent stories for young and old of faithfulness in trying times.
