Danger on Midnight River

Gary Paulsen 4-6  

2 cassettes
2.75 hours
AB-101

 

Twelve-year-old Daniel Martin is a slow learner who escapes his classmates' cruel jokes by spending time in the outdoors. When a van crash plunges them into a river, Daniel could use his survival skills to save himself--or risk everything to try to rescue the bullies, too.

The Devil’s Arithmetic

Jane Yolen 4-6   4 cassettes
4 hours
AB-59
  Hannah is tired of hearing about the Nazis during the Holocaust, but when she opens the door for Elijah at the Passover Seder, she is transported in time to 1940s Poland, where she is captured and put in a death camp. A girl named Rivka befriends her, teaching her how to fight the dehumanization of the camp and hold onto her identity.

Downriver

Will Hobbs 4-6   5 cassettes
6 hours
AB-103

 

No adults, no permit, no river map, just some "borrowed" gear from Discovery Unlimited, the outdoor education program Jessie and her new companions have just ditched. Jessie and the others are having the time of their lives floating beneath sheer red walls, exploring unknown caves and dangerous waterfalls, and plunging through the Grand Canyon's roaring rapids. No one, including Troy, who emerges as the group's magnetic and ultimately frightening leader, can foresee the challenges and conflicts.
