Little Tatatuck is a root pulling gnome who dreams of working in the crystal caves. But he is small and weak and is told by the head crystal gnome that he must journey over seven mountains to the highest crystal cave on crystal mountain and bring back a crystal from there to qualify for being a crystal gnome. Many have gone but none have returned. Tatatuck travels over the seven mountains and meets one adventure after the other in trying to get to Crystal Mountain. He gathers treasures and friends along the way, faces many hazards, and becomes strong in many ways just through the journey and before the destination. Does he make it? You will have to read to know for sure! This is a delightful tale masterfully told by Jakob Streit, teacher and story teller extraordinaire!

It is the year 480 BC and the greatest army ever gathered in the ancient world is on the march to conquer all of Greece. An irresistible force, they destroy whatever dares to stand in their path. One man steps forward to stop them, followed by 300 companions. His chances are next to nil, yet he goes without hesitation. This man is a king. His name is Leonidas. And his companions are Spartans. They go to stop the Persian advance and meet their destiny at the narrows known as the Hot Gates. This is the account of the battle of Thermopylae. A small contingent of 300 Spartan warriors will hold off the thrust of the Persian invasion for three days of intense battle. We witness these events through the eyes of the twelve-year old Spartan boy, Agis, who has followed his father into battle and is eventually invited by Leonidas to take his rightful place in the battle at the Hot Gates.
