Emily and Jackson Hiding Out

BOOK TALK

Emily and Jackson have finally arrived at Emily’s Aunt Hilda’s farm where they plan to live a quiet life away from child-catching men and Emily’s mean Uncle Victor.  Emily and Jackson settle in to farm life, learning to do the chores that help Aunt Hilda.  All is well until Uncle Victor shows up at the farm and kidnaps Emily.  Jackson takes off after them and they both get caught trying to escape and find themselves locked up on a boat.  Just as the situation seems hopeless, help comes from an unexpected friend.
