Angel of the Ozarks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781300679516)

Fifteen-year-old Angelique is sent to the mountains to live with her grandparents after her mother dies. She expects to be depressed, bored, lonely and ignored, but instead she wins the hearts of a host of newfound relatives and friends, while becoming involved in exciting events. Meet her loving grandparents, her elderly independent aunt, the horses she rides, and the dogs she loves. Her unlikely friends are the elusive captain of a rescue boat, a stubborn rancher, a mysterious Native American, and the boy who becomes her special friend. Her activities include riding in a laughable mule race, herding cattle, sledding into a creek, taking a wild ride on an ATV to rescue her aunt, becoming a high water expert, and discovering that she is a bee charmer, like her aunt. Her volunteer project, helping at a camp for handicapped kids, culminates in escaping with the children from a forest fire.
