I found this book among the thousands of books my homeschooling mom friend has collected over the years. I read it aloud as part of my own homeschooling program for my 11 year old son. We both enjoyed the story. It has enough action and active voice to keep us both interested from chapter to chapter. The story is told through the eyes of a 12 year old indentured servant in Boston right before the start of the Revolution. I was glad I had found this little gem of a book.
