Indian Captive - Lois Lenski
1942 Newbery Honor book for older children. It's the story of a captive of the Seneca around the time of the French and Indian Wars. Dated, but more sensitive than one would expect. I did find myself wanting to know more than just her first two or three years with the tribe.
#6 The Ersatz Elevator - Lemony Snicket
#8 The Hostile Hospital - Lemony Snicket
Terribly fun. Thank you mysterious stranger who abandoned them in my mailroom. I hope the library stocks them.
