Stagecoach Sal

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Carson Ellis. Sal is thrilled to deliver mail in the family stagecoach--her first solo journey--even if it means encountering rhyming robber Poetic Pete. Dusty-hued, clean-lined illustrations are interspersed with the book's soundtrack of sorts: lyrics from the era's folk songs. An author's note reveals the real-life inspirations for tomboy Sal and Poetic Pete.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
