Desperate Times and Outrageous Measures

About the Book

Join Emma and her group of friends from Ka$hville as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Bored by a lecture in world history class, the snoozing students soon find themselves smack in the middle of Robin Hood's England and, ultimately, as pawns in a plot to kill Prince John. Follow along as they face medieval medicine, experience dungeon justice, and encounter an interesting trio called the Weirdaleers. Can they survive this test? Will they be the ones responsible if history unravels? You just might be surprised at the answer.

About the Author

The sixth grade Mustang Ink Slingers call New Providence Middle School in Clarksville, TN, home. Forged from the advanced reading class on the Racers team, the Ink Slingers (under the direction of their teacher Lezlie Word Tyson who is also the author of the Intents of the Heart series) began writing this novel in October 2004. Six months and many revisions later, they sought publication. All sales benefit the NPMS library fund.
