Beskrivelse
From international author Regi Belton comes a middle school historical romp across the U.S.! Deep and wacky, Treasure Camp is a page turning ride that is a bonus to every homeschool or public library.
This historical fiction includes over 25 historical notes to make the past live. It provides notes on such varied subjects of child labor laws to dynamite, to interest the broadest possible audience.
The main character is Sam Deluca. Sam is hiding something. But so are others. Who is a truth teller? Who hides their pain? How long will friendships last? What will Sam risk to find a new home? And why does he care so much for Twinkies? Stay quiet now, and I will tell you the story. It was two outs, bases loaded, and Sam Deluca, age 12, entered the batter's box.
