Title:  Snow Treasure
Author:  Marie McSwigan
Reviewer:   Sara M.  '07

Snow Treasure takes place in a small village in Norway where nine million dollars in gold is hidden.

Nazis parachute into this peaceful village in 1940. Peter Lundstrom, the main character, has an uncle from America. His uncle thinks up a risky plan to get the gold out of Norway and the Nazi’s clutches. The children are to take four blocks of gold on their sleds and sled down the mountain. The Nazis would never suspect children. When the children get to the bottom of the mountain, they are supposed to bury their gold, then build a snowman over it. Then, Peter’s uncle, hiding in a cleverly disguised ship, will find the snowmen and take the gold. Something goes wrong, though.

Will the gold be safe?  Read Snow Treasure to find out!
