THE YOUNG PIONEERS SERIES - BOOK 5 ANTHOLOGY Return of the Lost Shoe (Story 1) The pair of shoes actually had not been bought for Theodore (better known as Teddy). They were bought for his big brother, Clifton, and they were a perfect fit at the time, but Cliff was in line for something: a "growth spurt" where a boy was one size now, and two weeks later he was another size. And the thing was, that usually happened to a boy's feet. Nothing strange about that. What was strange was what the lost shoe did and how it got back with its mate. Hidden in the Stuff (Story 2) Ten-year-old Rosie sat waiting. Her "runaway bag" was in her lap. Two meat-filled biscuits were in her apron pocket. Four strips of dried meat were in the carrying bag. The bag had been packed for several weeks, but the meat was slipped in just a few minutes ago when Ollie had told her this was the day. Why had she done all that? Maybe the next few words will tell.
Joann was born in 1933 in the Arkansas mountains during the Great Depression, into the family of a pioneer minister. Fascinated with pencils and paper from an early age, she developed a love for reading and storytelling. Encouraged by her older sister, who aspired to be a teacher, Joann learned to read early, with her first book being an ABC book. Her limited access to books only fueled her imagination, leading her to create her own stories and rhymes.Growing up attending church regularly due to her father's ministry, Joann was exposed to many people and the values of hard-working settlers in the Midwest. These experiences deeply influenced her writing. Her work reflects the lives and attitudes of her childhood, enriched with imagination. She gravitated toward historical fiction, particularly stories from around 1900, inspired by her grandmother's tales and her own memories of a bygone era.
