  Jems Frog Fiasco

  $6.50

  In Jem’s Frog Fiasco, Jem needs to buy food for his dog, Gold Nugget. But try as he may, his panning just never leads to gold. When he asks for a job, Mr. Sims, the cafe owner, sends him out to catch bullfrogs for the menu. Money and frog catching—what a great solution for this active boy! But Nugget and Jem’s little sister Ellie get in the way and ruin his plans. When he argues with Ellie, she stomps off in a huff, and Jem can get back to work. He heads home with a bucket full of frogs and the knowledge that he’ll have plenty of cash for Nugget’s food.

  There’s just one big problem—no one knows where Ellie has gone—she’s disappeared! Search parties go out, but no matter where they look, there’s no sign of her. And Jem knows that it’s his fault for yelling at her. Can be find Ellie before it’s too late?

  Jem Strikes Gold

  $6.50

  In Jem Strikes Gold, 7-year-old Jem Coulter’s family is trying to make a go of it in Goldtown, with Pa panning for gold and Mama baking pies and washing laundry to make ends meet. Jem and his little sister Ellie do everything they can to help out. But it’s hard to help when Will Sterling, a rich boy with a mean streak, picks on Jem every time he runs errands for Mama. When Will’s antics end up ruining the pies, Jem’s had enough. No pies means no money for the whole family! How can he get Will to stop?

  When Strike-It-Rich Sam, Jem’s prospector friend, shows up with a scrawny dog, Jem might have an answer to the bully problem. The brave pup can protect them—if only Jem can convince his parents that another mouth to feed is a good idea.
