ALVIN FERNALD IS BACK!!!
For the first time in 23 years, a new book is available in the Alvin
Fernald series. Alvin
Fernald's Incredible Buried Treasure is an exciting and
hilarious mystery that reaches back to the Civil War.
Alvin, The Pest and Shoie form a bond that crosses 150 years of history
to a boy who buried a national treasure in order to save
it. Alvin solves a secret message that reveals the
whereabouts of the treasure and the kids recover it as a gift, both to
the boy who originally buried it and to our country.
This new book captures the fun and excitement of previous Alvin Fernald
adventures while presenting living history at its finest.
Clifford Hicks believes that Alvin
Fernald's Incredible Buried Treasure is the "the finest juvenile
book" he has ever written.
