Contains 5 stories
Lucky Seven!
5 pp · non-fiction; aviation; biography; war

Sergeant Ben Warmer of San Francisco can't shake the feeling he's forgotten something important as he and his fellow gunners prepare for a bombing raid on an enemy airfield in Sicily during World War II. When the mission comes under heavy attack from German fighters, Warmer's skill with his guns becomes crucial to protecting the formation—and to unlocking the memory that's been nagging at him all day.

Conacher of Canada
5 pp · biography

Lionel Conacher's path to becoming the world's outstanding athlete begins in his youth, when a scrappy Canadian kid discovers he's a natural competitor—dominating amateur wrestling at just sixteen, then pivoting through professional wrestling, boxing, and team sports with almost reckless ambition. As he tears through championships in football, hockey, baseball, and lacrosse, often competing in multiple sports on the same day, Conacher proves that raw talent and relentless drive can conquer any arena he enters. His story captures a bygone era of athletic versatility and the remarkable career of a man who refused to be confined to a single sport.

Fredericka of the Maquis
4 pp · non-fiction; biography; war

Isabel Townsend Pell, an American living in southern France, refuses to abandon her adopted home when war breaks out, instead quietly becoming a fund-raiser and operative for the French Underground under the alias "Fredericka." After her imprisonment and escape in 1943, she joins forces with a local resistance leader to carry out dangerous missions against the Nazis, all while evading capture by the Gestapo. When American paratroopers find themselves trapped behind enemy lines in August 1944, Fredericka's knowledge and courage prove decisive in their survival.

Patrick, the Upside-Down Pelican
6 pp · humor; anthropomorphic-funny animals

Patrick is a pelican with a peculiar problem: he gets terribly dizzy when he looks down from the sky and loses the ability to fly. When he crashes into a tree and meets Woody the Woodpecker, he receives a magic flute, a bag of peas, and a lucky four-leaf clover to help with his condition—but things don't go quite according to plan. A chance encounter with a wise worm and a surprise attack from hawks forces Patrick to find an unconventional solution to his dizziness.

One Man Army of the American Revolution
8 pp · non-fiction; biography

Peter Francisco, a mysterious child mysteriously abandoned on the James River in 1765, grows up among American patriots and at fifteen enlists in the Revolutionary Army—where his towering frame and extraordinary strength earn him the title of "one-man army." From the Battle of Brandywine to Yorktown, Francisco fights across the colonies with legendary feats of valor, including carrying a 1,100-pound cannon single-handed and famously defeating an entire British regiment through quick thinking, while General Washington himself honors this remarkable soldier with a specially forged five-foot sword and unique authority to operate as a lone fighter behind enemy lines.
