Johnny Tremain: A Newbery Award Winner - Paperback
by Esther Hoskins Forbes (Author)
A classic of children's historical fiction--now with a freshly designed cover! Johnny Tremain is a thrilling Newbery Medal-winning novel about the Revolutionary War.
Fourteen-year-old Johnny Tremain, an apprentice silversmith with a bright future ahead of him, injures his hand in a tragic accident, forcing him to look for other work. In his new job as a horse-boy, riding for the patriotic newspaper the Boston Observer and as a messenger for the Sons of Liberty, he encounters John Hancock, Samuel Adams, and Dr. Joseph Warren.
Soon Johnny is involved in the pivotal events of the American Revolution, from the Boston Tea Party to the first shots fired at Lexington. Powerful illustrations by artist Michael McCurdy help bring this classic novel for middle graders to life.
