Mz. Grundy's life of adventure began in the summer of 1875 when she was eighteen years old, and her journey from Massachusetts to Chicago was chronicled in Book 1 of this series, The Adventures of Mz. Grundy Z. Leatherberry: The Quest for Adventure. This book, The Adventure Continues, picks up where the first left off, when Mz. Grundy was stranded in Chicago with no place to stay. Ya see, Mz. Grundy was on her way to the Dakota Territory to become a schoolteacher for the newly settled frontier on the prairie along the Missouri River in what is now South Dakota. Along the way, she was sure she would encounter adventure and fun, and she was entirely correct! Join Mz. Grundy as she rolls across the plains behind a gigantic locomotive, then sloshes up the Missouri River on a steamboat. Experience her awe and admiration of the frontiersman who catches a fifty-foot fish like none she'd ever before seen. Blush with her as the first young gentleman in her life gives her attention. Learn with her as she is befriended by a former slave. Feel the adrenalin rush as Mz. Grundy leaps and dances around a rattler attempting to bite her. Laugh with and at her over her zany moments trying to show up a male horseman, attempting to teach the pilot of the steamboat how to steer, having her strong will challenged by an equally strong-willed soldier, and more. There are brief historical vignettes as well to explain those bygone times for modern readers who may not know about life in 1875. Don't miss this opportunity to venture into the past and see pioneer life from Mz. Grundy's perspective! It's sure to make you chuckle, ponder, and even be glad you are learning history as you enjoy the fictional story!
