Other editions of book The Bell Tree

Jenny Sadler is on a trip with her father to the planet Tanin, where he would like to learn more about a scroll he received whose makers seem to have technology and materials far more advanced than anything at the Silas P. Sadler Research Institute has ever seen. While her father becomes almost consumed with his pursuit of the culture that created the artifact, Jenny befriends Eli (an orphan and one of the only children born on Tanin), who happens to be the discoverer of the scroll and their hired guide to the site of his find. As Jenny, her father and Eli explore deeper into the ruins of what appears to be an ancient civilization, the finds they make may not be the ones they were looking for.
