Sobre este producto
  • What is the mystery of Tornado's background? How did he get his unusual name? Whispering fiercely to his Gram, he tells her to never tell anyone, especially strangers, what she knows about how he got his name. He can't 't explain how he feels growing up with this mystery about how he got his name, but it makes it impossible for him to talk to anyone about it. And that's not the only mystery that troubles Tornado! What about the two men who are secretly digging in the canyon? Are they seeking the gold it's said that robbers buried in the canyon a long time ago? Then, that summer, Paul Travis comes to visit the small Nebraska town where Tornado lives with his grandmother. Paul becomes Tornado's best friend and that's why he tells Paul about the glass bell—the only clue to his name. He also tells him about the gold buried in the canyon. After that, they set out together to find the gold and to solve the mystery of Tornado’s name. This is a book full of adventure and excitement for ages 9–14. It is the story of a boy's first trusted friendship, his close relationship with his grandmother, the thrilling solution to the 100-year-old mystery about his name, and the exciting conclusion to his quest for buried treasure. Here is what an early reader had to say about this book: “I lived in North Platte Nebraska from about February of 1953 till about April of 1955. During that time a book was written by Trella Lamson Dick entitled “Tornado Jones”. Everyone in my school in North Platte read that book many, many times. We all loved it." While this book is a work of fiction, it is based on fact. The Jeffrey Reservoir was built east of North Platte, not far from the author’s home in the small town of Orleans, Nebraska, where she lived her entire life. Her written works include the Tornado Jones series, as well as other publications for children. This book won the Charles W. Follett Award and is the first in a series about Tornado Jones. Although this book was written over 50 years ago, the author’s fine story telling will captivate today’s young readers. In bringing this book back, any negative stereotypes common to earlier times has been revised and edited.
