"Scouting with Kit Carson" by Everett T. Tomlinson is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the legendary figure of Kit Carson, a renowned scout and trapper, and follows the young trapper Reuben Benton as he embarks on a journey of exploration and survival in the American wilderness. As Reuben teams up with fellow trapper Jean Badeau, the narrative sets the stage for perilous encounters with wildlife and Native American tribes, emphasizing the themes of bravery and camaraderie. The opening of the novel introduces Reuben and Jean as they make camp on the plains after a long ride from St. Louis to the Rocky Mountains. Tired yet invigorated, they prepare their campsite when suddenly, a buffalo calf and a pack of wolves appear, foreshadowing the dangerous wildlife they may encounter. The pair discusses the possibility of Indian attacks before their attention is drawn to the oncoming buffalo herd, which threatens to trample their camp. As the tension rises, Reuben's impulsive decision to chase after a buffalo leads to trouble when he loses his horse and becomes separated from Jean. This sets into motion a series of unfolding adventures that promise both excitement and danger. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 78.3 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
