Lucky's Gold Mine (Lucky Ladd Ser. #3)
by Dean HughesStaying temporarily in snow-covered Montana, eleven-year-old Lucky gets to know a tough, angry tomboy and finds himself her only salvation when her life is in danger. Most people don't think that Lucky is really all that lucky. If there's anything slippery nearby, he'll find it and trip. His toes must have obstacle-seeking devices on them to find things to stumble over. Since his father is in a business that checks out disasters, they travel from place to place in their motor home. Lucky makes new friends at church and school, only to say good-bye to them a few weeks later. What kind of good luck is that? Ron Ladd, Lucky's father, insists that no one is luckier. Lucky manages to get through accidents that would wipe out other kids. And though he's small for his size and gets picked on, he always seems to avoid getting beat up. His luck just gets luckier when they travel to West Yellowstone in winter, where it doesn't hurt to fall down. Snow, you see, is soft. Then, on the very first day, Lucky hears about a lost gold mine from a kid named Bob. He gets to go snowmobiling and search for treasure. Eventually, they think they find their gold mine--and something else entirely different. There are over 55 more books by Dean Hughes in Bookshare's library. Three of them are about Lucky. You'll find a funny series about Nutty Nutsell and there are series about baseball, soccer, football, and soldiers. There are also some stand alone novels about boys.
