Common Sense About the Common Cold
4 pp · non-fiction

Follow the exploits of Joe Smith, a health-conscious worker who practices sensible cold prevention through proper diet, exercise, and rest, and contrast them with John Jones, who ignores basic precautions and pays a serious price. This 1944 True Comics feature uses two contrasting lives to teach readers the practical steps they can take to avoid catching a cold—and why ignoring early warning signs can spiral into something far more dangerous.

Danger at Daybreak
2 pp · non-fiction; war

In October 1943, the Canadian minesweeper H.M.C.S. *Georgian* spots mysterious flares off its port bow while on convoy escort duty in the North Atlantic—a potentially dangerous signal that could be a U-boat trap or a genuine distress call. Navigating treacherous waters thick with icebergs, Lieutenant Boucher and his crew locate a downed American flying fortress crew adrift in the frigid sea and mount a harrowing rescue operation to pull ten men from rubber floats before the cold claims them. It's a tense, true account of wartime courage against the unforgiving ocean.

Salute to the Coast Guard
2 pp · non-fiction

Salute to the Coast Guard traces the proud heritage of America's coastal defenders from their founding by President Washington through their vital modern role safeguarding shipping and maintaining navigational aids—and showcases two remarkable tales of courage from the nation's history. The first follows Emeline Wharton, who disguises herself as a soldier to spy behind British lines during the Revolutionary War, risking everything to gather intelligence that helps secure a crucial victory at Saratoga. The second tells of Jim "Doc" Bay, an older recruit deemed too old for combat who finally gets his chance to prove his mettle as a medical aide in the fierce fighting in New Guinea.

Our Good Neighbor, Uruguay
6 pp · non-fiction

This non-fiction story traces Uruguay's journey from a disputed colonial borderland to an independent nation, beginning with early Spanish exploration and the indigenous resistance that greeted it, then following centuries of struggle between Portuguese and Spanish powers for control of the region. The narrative moves through Uruguay's pivotal moments—from the rise of gaucho leader José Artigas and his fight for independence, through the secret society that drove out Brazilian rule, to the political rivalries and conflicts that shaped the young republic. By 1828, Uruguay emerged as a sovereign state, eventually finding stability under reformist leadership in the early twentieth century.
