Book Description
When puppies Lindie Lou, Jasper, Topaz, Ruby and Diamond are born in St. Louis they have no idea of the adventures that await them. As each of them is adopted by a different family, Lindie Lou fears she will never see them again. When she's old enough, Lindie Lou flies to the Emerald City (Seattle) to meet her new family.Each of the twelve books projected for this series, takes place in a different place and in a different month of the year. Three clues at the end of each book give the reader hints as to where Lindie Lou will go on her next adventure. This beginning chapter book series, introduces young readers to adventures in St. Louis at the City Museum, at the Space Needle in Seattle, at an organic farm in Des Moines, at a Thanksgiving Day parade in New York, and at a Cherry Blossom Festival in Japan to mention a few. Along the way, Lindie Lou's brothers and sisters show up when least expected. Readers will remember Lindie Lou's bravery when faced with fears of their own. They will also see examples of her developing self-esteem, courage, determination and compassion.Creative fonts, color illustrations, and short chapters provide a series that is a bridge between early chapter books and novels. The Lindie Lou Adventures Series has proven to be a favorite classroom read aloud, safe for young fluent readers, the first chapter book read by Hi-Lo readers, and a winner for ELL students.
