Hi:
I need the group brain for titles of these 2 old stories (if possible):

1-  A turn-of-the-century Americanized version of  the Norwegian Askeladden story 
in which he is called something like Ashy Paddle.  (This one's for my aged aged 
aunt.  She says it's not Ash Lad and her teacher read it to her class--located in 
Idaho.  She's SURE it was Ashy Paddle and no other version will do--if it exists)

2-A 1930s-1950s(?) story set in Wyoming in which Boss--a lady shepherd who lives in 
one of those little houses on wheels--takes in a migrant (?) boy found along the 
road.  She calls him David after David in the Bible.  He and 2 sheep dogs help  her 
with the sheep and fight off a grizzly.  Eventually he helps her, but I'm not sure 
how.  (This is for a friend's husband who wants very badly to read this story to 
his daughter.  It's a 3rd-4th reading level and he could still find it in public 
libraries in PA in the 70s.)

Thanks for any help you can give.
