Northwest Illinois, 1885. Mitch and Andy Jensen's Adventure on the Tyler City Trail will teach them lessons about friendship, forgiveness, and God's eternal love. When Mitch and Andy's trail boss grandfather invites them to come on one of his cattle drives, they expect an exciting trip. But they have no idea what is truly in store for them. They make several new friends along the way: Uncle Stew, the camp cook; Running Deer, a young Indian boy who has run away from home; and Lucky Hopper, a giant bullfrog. When they find themselves prisoners of the Carlson gang, a notorious band of cattle rustlers, they'll need the help of every one of their newfound friends. Mitch and Andy's Adventure on the Tyler City Trail teaches all those involved, including the reader, many things about the nature of God's love. Readers will learn that God's watchful care is all around us, and that he does indeed answer our prayers.
