The Pigeon Pair
by Elisabeth OgilvieIngrid and Greg Snow were a pigeon pair -- twins -- one male, one female, just like the two eggs that hatch in a pigeon's nest. Against the backdrop of a seacoast town in Maine, eighteen-year-old Ingrid Snow tells the stark, poignant story of their growing up. Life in a crowded tarpaper shack did have its joys, but these were always shadowed by Papa's pride, Mama's day-dreamin', and each year, it seemed, another little mouth to feed. If it hadn't been for Ingrid and Greg's one crazy determination to buy back the beautiful, ancestral Snow home on the main road, there would have been no incentive to leave the back road "camp." Elisabeth Ogilvie has woven a tense, moving drama about a town, a family --and poverty.

Pigeon Post (Swallows and Amazons #6)
by Arthur RansomeFor anyone who loves sailing and adventure, Arthur Ransome’s classic Swallows and Amazons series stands alone. Originally published in the UK over a half century ago, these books are still eagerly read by children, despite their length and their decidedly British protagonists. We attribute their success to two facts: first, Ransome is a great storyteller and, second, he clearly writes from first-hand experience. Independence and initiative are qualities any child can understand and every volume in this collection celebrates these virtues. The crew’s on holiday for their sixth adventure, and they turn their energies to mining for gold, aided by pigeon messengers Homer, Sophocles, and Sappho. The adventurers comb the nearby hills for a fabled lost claim, while being shadowed by a mysterious figure they dub “squashy hat.” Undeterred by drought, sudden brushfires, and the continuing presence of Squashy Hat, the young prospectors persevere in their quest — with surprising results. Full of the dangers and dark adventures of old mines and forgotten claims, Pigeon Post has an irresistible appeal to the persistent explorer in every child.
