Courage. Imagination. Unbeatable Determination.
The Kentucky frontier was a beautiful place, but it was also a dangerous one. Jemima Boone and John Gass often heard wolves howling, bears growling, and snakes slithering through the tall grasses. There was no store, no school, no doctor at Fort Boonesborough. The settlers were on their own to deal with whatever threats arose. On a sunny summer day in July 1776, the crisis they faced was a kidnapping. . . .
Based on a true event.
About the author
When Elizabeth Raum was in 3rd grade, her teacher predicted that she would become a writer. It seemed impossible. Now, 150 books later, Elizabeth admits that Mrs. Brown could see into the future. Of course, it didn’t happen right away. Elizabeth became a teacher and then a librarian before turning to writing fulltime. She’s written biographies, nonfiction books on many topics, picture books, and several middle-grade historical novels.
