Texas, 1856. Theodora “Teddy” Sharpe, age 12, and her twin brother, Thad, join their father at a military post near San Antonio where he is in charge of putting cavalrymen on camels in the American West. While seeking a relationship with the father she hasn’t seen in over a year, Teddy jumps into adventures with spitting, biting and bucking camels, as well as scorpions, rattlesnakes, Gila monsters, Indians, and a stealthy enemy determined to ruin her father’s camel project.
This laugh-out-loud funny mystery is based on a little-known true chapter of American history. A terrific book for teens and young adults, it’s also a great real-aloud book for younger children, and an enjoyable romp for adults who like to laugh.
