SIGNED The Golden Road of Tumbleweed Thompson (Book 2)
In the nine months since Tumbleweed Thompson left the town of Rattlesnake Junction, Colorado, for life on the road with the Coyote Pete Frontier Show, Eugene Appleton has found himself yearning for a taste of the adventures he imagines his new friend having on the American frontier. Life at home changes in an instant when Tumbleweed once again finds a way to interrupt Eugene’s life to ask for his help in solving the sudden disappearance of his father. And so, the two set off on a life-changing quest in search of the fabled treasure of the Sangre de Cristo mountains.
Filled with pulse-bounding adventure, suspense, humor, and moments of rich beauty as Eugene and Tumbleweed explore the American West in all its ruggedness and splendor, The Golden Road of Tumbleweed Thompson will take readers on a remarkable journey.
The Golden Road of Tumbleweed Thompson is a wild and wooly tale that is classic Americana for a new generation.
"So much fun! I read this aloud to my kids, and we couldn't put it down. Every night, they were asking to stay up late for 'just one more chapter!'" -AC
"My 6 kids (ages 4-12) and I just finished listening to this wonderful story. We loved the adventure and suspense along with the values of faith, justice, friendship, loyalty, and sacrifice. With a huge helping of humor thrown in, this is a perfect book to share with your kids!" - All Our Days
