    About this ebook

    Meet Miss Jones, the time traveling second grade teacher. Whenever she finds something “not quite right” in history, she goes back and fixes it!

    In this adventure Miss Jones discovers that the golden spike has been stolen! The transcontinental railroad is almost finished. Important people have come from clear across the country to see the last, golden spike being laid, but it is about to disappear!

    Can Miss Jones reach Promontory Point, Utah in time to save the golden spike, and the ceremony of the joining of the rails?

    Join Miss Jones on these fun adventures and find out a little bit about history along the way.
