Contains 6 stories
Winner and Still Champion
6 pp · non-fiction; biography
Barney Ross [Barnet David Rasofsky]NickJimmy McLarninHenry Armstrong

This is the true story of how Barney Ross, a champion boxer who rose from poverty in Chicago to win multiple titles in the ring, answered the call to serve his country after Pearl Harbor. When age and injuries seemed to bar him from enlisting, the relentless fighter who never knew when he was beaten finally made it into the Marines—and at Guadalcanal, the same courage that won him boxing titles earned him a medal for extraordinary bravery under fire. It's a biography of a man whose greatest victory came not in the ring, but in defense of his nation.

The Bear That Found a Star
5 pp · humor; anthropomorphic-funny animals

When a bright star tumbles from the sky right into the paws of Brownie, a little cinnamon bear living in Animal Village, he sets off on a determined journey to find where it belongs. From consulting Dr. Ormsby Owl to searching Hollywood studios, a sheriff's office, and even the ocean floor, Brownie keeps hunting for the star's rightful owner—until a chance meeting reveals the truth and an unexpected destiny.

Pacific Adventure
3 pp · non-fiction
Col. Laverne Saunders [Blondy]

Col. Laverne "Blondy" Saunders, a West Point football hero turned bomber commander, proves his mettle when his plane is shot down over Japanese-held territory in the Solomon Islands during a bombing run on Faisi Harbor. With his pilot dead, his co-pilot wounded, and two engines ablaze, Saunders takes the controls of the crippled fortress and fights through enemy fire to reach cloud cover and spot a landing site. Stranded on an island with his crew, Saunders must rely on the help of friendly natives to evade Japanese patrols and await rescue.

An Indian Remembers
5 pp · biography; sports

Twenty years ago, Rock's mother told her son that a strong rock holds fast—words he carried with him to the baseball diamond. When the Sioux team from Prairie Island faces off against Winnipeg in a crucial game, Rock takes the mound as pitcher, but a rough day at bat tests whether he can live up to his name when it matters most. This sports biography shows how an old promise spoken in a mother's voice becomes the turning point in a thrilling eleven-inning battle.

Mistress of Mystery
5 pp · non-fiction; biography

Dell O'Dell clawed her way from obscurity to stardom as a nightclub performer, transforming herself from a struggling singer into the world's first celebrated female magician—and along the way, she picked up a few real-world applications for her stage craft. This true story follows how a chance suggestion to add magic to her act in Paris led to a thriving career, and how one night, her knowledge of misdirection and illusion helped her outsmart armed robbers who thought they could steal from the wrong woman.

Joe Foss America's No. 1 Ace
4 pp · non-fiction; aviation; biography; war

Captain Joe Foss of Sioux Falls rose from humble beginnings—learning to shoot with a Civil War rifle and working his way through the University of South Dakota—to become a Marine flying officer with nerves of steel. When the Marines attacked Guadalcanal in August 1942, Foss got his chance to prove himself in combat, flying Wildcats against Japanese Zeros and pushing himself to match the legendary record of Eddie Rickenbacker. His skill, determination, and refusal to sit out the fight even when illness struck made him a force in the Pacific theater and a symbol of American courage in the air.
