Synopsis

Caroline and her mother make a dangerous journey across Lake Ontario to the British fort where Papa is being held prisoner. When Mama isn't allowed to see Papa, it's up to Caroline to pass a secret message to him--right under the nose of a British guard! She hopes desperately that Papa will understand her message and make an escape. But can she get to him in time?

The illustrated "Looking Back" section explores how the War of 1812 affected women and children.

About this title

From the Author:

I loved imagining the plot for this book! Caroline and Mama travel into enemy territory, hoping to pass important information to Papa. I knew I wanted Caroline to take a key role in that dangerous adventure--but how? What could a girl of that time and place realistically do that could make a difference? The answer came not from reading, but from examining a special kind of antique made by young girls during that era.
