Red Ryder Spoken English Workbook #[nn]

In "The Secret of the Lost Turquoise Mine," Red Ryder follows a trail of clues through the desert, tracking two half-breed Navajos who've abducted Little Beaver and the medicine man Chee-Nez after their participation in a sacred nine-day Yei-Bi-Chi ceremony. With the help of traditional knowledge and his own wits, Red Ryder ventures into a hidden cave rumored to hold a treasure of turquoise, determined to free his friends before the ancient rites are fully completed. Written and illustrated by Fred Harman, this 1970 adventure blends Western action with Navajo cultural elements, all presented in a classic, straightforward style.
