Sam Steele’s Adventures — The Scream of the Sacred Ape
by L. Frank Baum
Illustrated by E. A. Nelson
5 1/2″x 8 1/2″ – 204 Pages – Hardcover
Young Sam Steele and his two pals, Archie and Joe, fish a wounded and dying Chinese Prince out of the ocean! Prince Kai Lun Po rewards the boys with detailed directions on how to plunder his family tomb of its treasure — and he gives them his blessing to do so.
All the boys have to do is get to China, hoodwink the palace staff, and get past the Sacred Apes of Kai that guard the treasure!
Originally published in 1909, under Baum’s pseudonym, Floyd Akers, as The Boy Fortune Hunters in China, this has been an exceedingly rare book — until now! Beautifully repackaged and reprinted, our new Pawprint Adventures imprint make Baum’s series books live again.
