The Slocum family of Northeastern Pennsylvania are the best of the white settlers, peace-loving Quakers who believe that the Indians hold the Light of God inside. It is from this good-hearted family that Frances is abducted during the Revolutionary war.As the child's terror subsides, she is slowly drawn into the sacred work and beliefs of her adoptive mother and of all the women of these Eastern tribes. Frances becomes Maconakwa, the Little Bear Woman of the Miami Indians. Then, long after the Indians are beaten and their last hope, Tecumseh, is killed, the Slocums hear word of their long-lost daughter and head out to Indiana to meet their beloved Frances. But for Maconakwa, it is a moment of truth, the test of whether her heart is truly a red one.

TeeJay General Maths 4G

This book, along with General Book 3G covers in depth the entire contents of the General Course. It is also an invaluable resource which can easily be used to cover the outcomes of the new CfE National 4 course being introduced to Scottish schools. It is a pupil friendly book and is one of our biggest selling resources. We found that pupils who struggled with the complexities of other General resources on the market, and who found the sudden change of pace and the level of difficulty too great to cope with, felt a lot more comfortable with our 3G and 4G textbooks. In Book 3G, we truncated the work in some chapters, for example: Pythagoras - Hypotenuse only Circle work - Circumference only Trigonometry - Tangent only (Tan tables at back of book), in order to allow pupils to have access to these topics and feel confident with the work without burdening them with all the "tricky bits"! Though the missing topics from these chapters were covered in the Extension Materials in 3G, they are re-produced in this book with changed numbers.
