Gr 1-3-The first title, written for first and second graders, is a fictionalized story about Oakley's childhood. Young Annie's father is caught in a snowstorm and the girl and her younger brother trap birds for their family's food. Crockett, which is suitable for second and third graders, covers the frontiersman's life to his last stand at the Alamo. Each chapter begins with a tall tale that relates to the material that follows. Oakley is illustrated with cartoon color art and Crockett with realistic, ink-and-watercolor pictures that often cover spreads. Both titles are adequate additions to most collections.-Lynda S.

In a story purportedly based on an incident from Oakley's childhood, young Annie Mosey's father goes to town for supplies. While awaiting his return, Annie makes a quail trap, which proves handy when Father arrives home nearly frozen from a blizzard: Annie helps to feed her family. The story is dramatic, but it has a choppiness that the inviting art can't completely mitigate. Timeline. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
