{"product_id":"jackrabbit-mccabe-and-the-electric-telegraph","title":"Jackrabbit McCabe and the Electric Telegraph","description":"The fastest man in the West meets his match in this deliciously clever original tall tale. With his extra-long legs, Jackrabbit McCabe can outrun anything on the American frontier: horses, trains, and even twisters. So of course, everyone in the town of Windy Flats always counts on his speed when a message has to get out fast. Then something new comes to town: the telegraph, which can send Morse code messages with the speed of electricity. At first, no one believes the newfangled contraption can deliver a message quicker than Jackrabbit. . . . But in a race between man and machine, who will be left in the dust?\n\nAn author's note includes information about the invention of the telegraph, a Morse code key, and a riddle written in Morse code for kids to transcribe.\n\n\"A strikingly accomplished debut.... A terrific tall tale about the costs and opportunities of technology.\" —Publishers Weekly, Starred\n\n\"Good, quick-moving fun. Kids may marvel that communication existed before the telephone and Internet.\" —Kirkus Reviews\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0385378432\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0385378432.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Rozier, Lucy Margaret|Espinosa, Leo\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
