Tremendous American Adventures with Classic Virtues and Sparkling Storytelling

Welcome to the Tumbleweed Thompson Adventures! Author Glenn McCarty takes readers on wild-west adventures from the American frontier. Follow Eugene Appleton, a pastor’s kid who doesn’t usually find himself in much trouble, until he meets a new friend: Tumbleweed Thompson. Eugene, Tumbleweed, and their friend, Charlotte, find themselves in adventure after adventure, most often because of Tumbleweed’s own machinations.

For families who love the action and humor of series like the Green Ember, the Wingfeather Saga, Mr. Limoncello’s Library, and the Mysterious Benedict Society, the Tumbleweed Thompson Adventures provide fast-paced, hijinks-filled middle-grade novels with the added beauty of the American west and the classic feel of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.

    Rina

  • 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!"

  • 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!

About Glenn McCarty

GLENN McCARTY is the author of the middle grade novel The Misadventured Summer of Tumbleweed Thompson, as well as Junction Tales, a companion collection of stories, and two Dead-Eye Dan novels for young people. He teaches middle school English in Western New York, where he lives with his wife and children in a small town that’s pretty much Mayberry. But without Don Knotts. Bummer. He also has a dog who likes to bark at visitors, then boldly run and hide from them. He finds campfires and banjo music two of life’s simple pleasures. And pie.
