Publisher's Summary

Listen about how Ragged Dick starts out as a street boy and bootblack and eventually pulls himself up by his bootstraps.

Horatio Alger was once crowned America's best-selling author of all time. His works are back, and they sound like never before. Audiobooks come alive with commentary, author biography, study questions, and more. You will fall in love with these stories of success!
