Cherry Ames : Jungle Nurse Hardback
by Helen Wells
Hardback
Description
Cherry Ames is back, just as you remember her! The books are just as you remember them, retaining the same look, feel, and sense of adventure and patriotism as when they were first published.
With fully illustrated color covers and a soft-finished hardcover format just like the originals, these books will transport you back to the days when you were reading about this spunky young nurse.
Series editor and registered nurse Harriet Foreman was inspired by and remains a devoted fan of Cherry Ames: '...I was going to follow in her footsteps and become a nurse - nothing else would do'.
When Cherry Ames is offered a temporary assignment to help establish a health clinic in a small native African village, she sees it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Not only will she be visiting a strange and exciting part of the world - but, more importantly, she will have a chance to help the underprivileged people of a very poor country.
But no sooner has the clinic been built than Cherry finds herself caught up in the midst of a mysterious chain of events.
Rough diamonds are being smuggled out of Africa - and Cherry's acute observations lead her to believe that the clinic itself is the base of the smugglers' operations!
By carefully putting together obscure bits and pieces of evidence, and at great personal danger to herself, Cherry sets a trap for the criminals.
How the alert and pretty young nurse from the United States manages to put an end to an international smuggling ring provides a whirlwind finish to a fascinating story of mystery and intrigue.
Springer Publishing Company is delighted to be bringing Helen Wells' beloved heroine back into print for a new generation of younger readers (as well as a host of nostalgic older ones).
The books are available as beautifully rendered facsimile hardcover editions and in boxed sets of four.
