by Elizabeth Raum (Author), Laurie A. Conley
From the award-winning author of over 160 books for kids, this historical fiction telling of the kidnapping of Daniel Boone's daughter will give readers a whole new appreciation of freedom.
In the summer of 1776, on the edge of the wilderness and a new nation, Daniel Boone's daughter Jemima and two friends were kidnapped. Daniel and a group of men and boys tracked the girls, following the clues they'd carefully left behind.
In this rescue group was John Gass, a young boy eager to prove his worth to the settlement. As he learns tracking and wilderness skills, he also learns the value of friendship and home.
Jemima and John's stories are told side by side as the three days culminate in rescue and reunion. This true event is brought to life in adventurous form.
