Reviews
“Readers should identify with Anna and admire her spunk.” ―Kirkus Reviews
“Anna is a strong, appealing heroine, and the story is suspenseful.” ―School Library Journal
“This book is reminiscent of the Little House on the Prairie series, and offers a good historical point of view in a more concise and simpler version than the Wilder books. The author intersperses a captivating story with history of the frontier, and demonstrates the hardships faced by the settlers during harsh winters.” ―Foreword Reviews
