Two ten-year-olds on a class trip to the Erie Canal find themselves transported back in time to the canal of 1829. Dragged aboard a canal boat, the boy and girl experience adventures getting through each day by blending into its tempo and chores while trying to find a way back to the present. ** 
The author imparts an enormous amount of detail about the canal through the story-line, and his colorful characterization brings the story to life boldly. 
This novel is at once entertaining and exciting enough to hold youngsters interests and detailed enough to be of use to teachers trying to teach the history of the canal or of the period. **

Reber, Jack

One of the most popular texts in Gifted Education, this secondary student book sparks interest and is an exciting launching pad for virtually any direction that a creative teacher wants to lead students in: creative writing, research, debate, philosophical and ethical discussions, political science, history, etc. The book includes strategies of teaching, discussion topics, an array of suggested activities, and numerous "Mind Builder" exercises for further inquiry. The "Mind Builders" emphasize creative problem solving, higher-level thinking skills, and group dynamics (including leadership, communication, &amp; conflict resolution). The text is very good and Doug Marlette's cartoons are the stuff that has earned him the Pulitzer Prize.
