Product Description

Product Description

Francis Tucket continues his adventure - a little older and a whole lot wiser - and is on the move again, this time without his dangerous companion, Jason Grimes, whom Francis believes to be dead. Instead, Francis is travelling with Lottie and Billy, two orphaned children he has taken under his wing after their parent's death by Indians. Travelling further south into Mexican territory, Francis feels like a man now, determined to lead his charges to safety and find his own way back to his family. But now he has killed a man and they all have to run - falling straight into the hands of the brutal Comanchero tribe. Escaping by the skin of their teeth, Francis, Lottie and Billy realise that safety could be further off than they thought . . .

Tucket's Ride 2 Dec 2005
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
"Tucket's Ride", by Gary Paulsen is a good book. It has action and adventure emotion, and romance. One part of the story when Tucket takes aim with his rifle , but everyone else has there guns pointed at him and they all fired at the same time. If you like action books, than "Tucket's Ride" is the book for you.
Great book for boys to read 10 Jan 2007
By L. Goad - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
My son loves to read all of the Tucket series books. This book is a great value because it includes 5 books in one. My son does not put reading on the top of his favorite thing to do however the Tucket series has caught his interest. I recommend this book to anyone with a elementary age boy.
Tuckets Ride 19 April 2004
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The book that I am reading is called Tuckets Ride. It is the second book in the series. It is about a fifteen year-old boy named Tucket that travels with two orphans across the west. The three have had many scary experiences in there journey like being kidnapped by outlaws and others and always seem to escape.
This is a great book by Gary Paulsen. He describes the places they are at, the weather and the looks of things really well. He makes it easy to picture these things. This book is full of adventure and surprises. This book made me want to read it more since I am about his age. It is a good book to me because as I mentioned about my age and going through stuff, like kidnapping, that other people my age go through.
During the whole book it is kind of like a history lesson because Paulsen gives information about the Wild West.
