Less
than a year ago, Maggie had a family, a good life and was happy in her
home in France. That was before the decision was made to move to the new
colonies of America. Maggie's family died and left her an orphan in a strange
land. She was taken in as an indentured servant by a family. Now this family
has decided to move to the wilderness of Maine. For thirteen year old Maggie,
the thought of living in that cold wild place brought fear. What will life
be like? Will they survive against nature in the north? To find out what
colonial life was like, this is the book for you. |
