... I really liked this book. Betsy and her cousin George and their families are traveling west in the 1800s. George does everything he can to bother Betsy. It works everytime! There was no T.V. or radios to enertain the children, they had to make up games. It was fun to read about how things where in that time of history. If you have to read a historical fiction for a book report, this is a good one to choose.
