Peace

Kiwi just finished a fabulous book, A TRUE AND FAITHFUL NARRATIVE by Katherine Sturtevant.
When Edward comes courting Meg, asking what he can bring her from his sea voyage, Meg replies that he should see if he can "manage to be captured by pirates and enslaved in North Africa," to provide a narrative that her father can sell at his book shop. When Edward is indeed captured and enslaved by Barbary Pirates, Meg feels resposible and decides to do all she can to set him free. But complicating matters is another suitor, her father's apprentice, Will.

I told you a few days ago that we have a new display of books in the Teen Nook, "Peace." I just found a neat website to check out--the Peace Jam at http://www.folkmusic.com/f_peace.htm
