Yosemite Tomboy
by Shirley Sargent
Yosemite
National Park provides the setting for this dramatic story of eleven-year-old Jan
Kern. Within weeks of enrolling in the Yosemite School, Jan's uncontrolled temper and her
rebellion at being a girl bring her rejection from the other girls and probation at
school.
Bolstered by a
close-knit family, compassionate teachers, an Indian boy, an old pioneer woman, and
the magic of Yosemite, Jan slowly gains maturity. She wins friends, earns respect, and
discovers that she likes herself the way she is.
(Juvenile fiction.
Appropriate for ages 10 to 14.)
