Industry Reviews

"This is a great introduction to the Revolutionary period, brought to life with historical figures and conflicts through the eyes of today's kids. It also effectively humanizes those who were loyal to England. Alternating between the two sides, the story is fast paced, exciting, and informative."--SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL "The action is exciting and the descriptions of colonial life during this time period will be meaningful to young readers. It's funny, too, as the characters deal with the differences in lifestyles between contemporary and colonial America."--CHILDREN'S LITERATURE
