Once on This Island By: Gloria Whelan



So Sorry guys haven't written in a while. Life has been busy. No colors today, SAD! AJ got mad at me so no colors. Here's a great book.



Summery:  It is 1812 and war has erupted in the United States and Michigan is caught in it. Mary's father has been called to war and her and her sister have to stay at home to tend the farm. On top of that her best friend Gavin , a native american rescued by settlers and raised by them, has gone back to his people. Will Mary and her sister be able to survive with handsome British soldiers knocking on their, stealing their chickens and more?
This book is short but sweet it has a great plot and storyline! Enjoy.
PS this book is set on Mackinaw Island!

  1. Ah yes... I've seen that book before but never picked it up. Would someone who doesn't like historic fiction much like it too?
