Pedro's Pan: A Gold Rush Story - Paperback

by Matthew Lasley (Author), Jacob Souva (Illustrator)

• This very successful children's picture book is now available in paperback.
• Simultaneous release with a brand-new picture book by the same author-illustrator team, Max and Ed Bike to Nome, also a story about the Gold Rush.
• Many western states (AK, CO, NV, MT, CA) have ties to the Gold Rush and gold panning at tourist attractions and theme parks.


• Excellent choice for extended learning and activities for school Gold Rush units and Westward expansion units.


• Hooks include: humor; history and science educational value; unique in that other books on the subject are old-fashioned and unimaginative/dull.


• Appeals to gift stores, libraries, and Indie bookstores in gold mining states.
