Historical Fiction that weaves the life of a family into the events at Valley Forge in a very interesting way. The hardships of the soldiers were well conveyed, maybe a touch gruesome at times, but the author didn't prolong such scenes. Very much recommended for young girls in the 8-12 age.

Abigail is a young girl living in Valley Forge during the Revolutionary War. She and her family are enduring great struggles during this hard time, between the birth of a new baby to the battles seemingly taking place right outside their doorstep.
She must get used to the idea that sides must be chosen, loyalties will be tested, and the true reason of what it means to be an American will be realized.
Smart and honest, this story is the perfect read for a budding young history buff. Ms. Gregory writes as Abigail, completely capturing the innocent view of a child forced to grow up in a time of war and great change. Young readers will be able to relate to Abigail's challenges while learning about history along the way.
Printed with a new cover and format, THE WINTER OF RED SNOW is flawless.
