Great historical adventure

Bulla always does a great job of writing history in a way that the kids can't wait to hear the next chapter. And this book is no exception. The chapters are short and packed with adventure. My kids ranging 5 to 9 loved this story.

Great Early 1600s History for Younger Students

My children and I read this as part of our unit on the Colonial History of the U.S. We found it well-written without being bogged down with facts, and the plot was strong enough to keep the entire family interested in listening, from the Ph.D. to the three year old.

High Adventure for Early Readers

Did you ever notice how exciting adventure books are written for older and middle readers only? The second and third graders really seem to miss out. This book is a wonderful find. Written at a late 2nd grade or early 3rd grade reading level, it provides a wealth of excitement and adventure. My daughter loves Bulla. We have read all of Bulla's children's books and this is one of the best. We also recommend "Sword in the Tree" and "Ghost Town Treasure". For a more contemporary style novel, try "Shoeshine Girl"
