Grasshopper Summer Paperback - 2000
by Ann Turner; Erika Meltzer (Illustrator)
In this dramatic story of the American frontier, a plague of locusts devastates an entire year's worth of crops. Written in Turner's finely honed, evocative style, "Grasshopper Summer" follows 11-year-old Sam and his family when they move from Kentucky to the Dakota Territory in 1874.
Summary
In 1874, eleven-year-old Sam White and his family are moving from Kentucky to the Dakota Territory. These hardy pioneers know it will be hard work, but they don't expect the devastating plague that comes like an unstoppable force to sweep away all their hopes for the future. They will cope.
But they will never forget this grasshopper summer.
But they will never forget this grasshopper summer.
