Saving Sweetness (Sweetness #1)

"A rip-roaring tale featuring a big-hearted sheriff, a high-spirited heroine, and a happily ever after ending, all told in the tongue-rattling twang of the Old West."-*-School Library Journal*

Sweetness is the littlest orphan at mean, old Mrs. Sump's orphanage. When she escapes, Mrs. Sump sends the sheriff out to "rescue" her. But in the Wild West, with evil desperados about, it's the sheriff who ends up needing the help of Sweetness more than the other way around.

Saving Sweetness is about a spunky orphan named Sweetness and her adventures in the western wilderness. It is narrated by a bumbling sheriff who attempts to save Sweetness.

I taught this at the clinic in Summer 2011 to first and second grade students. The kids loved this book and became quite involved in it. They especially loved the funny voices I used while reading. This book is excellent for teaching children to make inferences.
