Présentation de l'éditeur :
After a family disagreement, Ross Cooper leaves home with only a knapsack and the clothes on his back. He hopes to find work, but job prospects in the 1930s are dim, especially for someone as young and inexperienced as Ross. His troubles worsen after he is spotted fleeing a burning barn in a Ohio town where a number of barns have gone up in flames. Though a kind but destitute family takes Ross in, he yearns to hit the road again, especially when another barn is set afire and he falls under suspicion. But stronger than his wish to leave is his hope to discover the true identity of the barn burner and clear his name. This moving and fast-paced story captures the spirit of determination and hope boys like Ross needed to survive during the Great Depression.
Présentation de l'éditeur :
Fast-paced and stirring, this historical fiction captures the grit of the Depression, as seen through the eyes of a resilient young boy.
The words echo in Ross Cooper's head. "Get out of my sight," his mother said; so fourteen-year-old Ross took to the road. But it's 1933 - the Great Depression. Families are pushed to their limits and hope is necessary to survive. And Ross can't muster much hope. After taking shelter in a barn for the night, he awakens to blazing bushels of hay-and is then seen running from the fire. The barn is one of many that have been burned, and now Ross is the prime suspect. Luckily, he finds a haven with a loving family while he searches for the real barn burner. Can he clear his good name in time?
