Simon's Gold

Simon's Gold

Simon's Gold

BY BOBBIE TEAGUE, ILLUSTRATED BY CHARLES DEPPNER

Brief Description:
Simon's Gold is a contemporary `ghost' story based on historical and geographical facts from Quaker North Carolina that will appeal to the young reader. Gwen Gosney Erickson, Librarian and College Archivist of the Friends Historical Collection, Guilford College, says, "Simon's Gold offers a look into the past with an interesting spin...blending past events with current settings adds insight into Quaker and Revolutionary era history without distracting the reader from the basic adventure. The book addresses timeless issues such as the importance of family and is an enjoyable read for all ages." Both author and illustrator are Friends.
