Decide & Survive: The Oregon Trail (Paperback)

A fast-paced, interactive adventure series for kids, featuring death-defying moments in history! This time featuring the Oregon Trail!

Journey back to 1846, when steamboats thundered down mighty rivers, wagon wheels carved ruts across the wide prairie, and whispers of fortune called thousands west. America is on the brink of change, and you are caught right in the middle of it. Your mother has vanished somewhere on the Oregon Trail, and the only way to find her is to follow the same perilous path―if you can survive it.

This isn’t a story you simply read. It’s a story you command. Every choice you make twists the path beneath your feet. One moment you’re leaping from a burning steamboat, the next you’re staring down ruthless bandits, battling through roaring rivers, pushing past howling blizzards, or scaling jagged mountains with everything on the line. Every decision could save your life ... or end it.

The dangers are real. The stakes are sky-high. And the possibilities? Limitless. History thinks it knows your fate, but it’s wrong. Nothing is decided until you decide it. Dive into a world of peril, mystery, and hope―and carve your own destiny on the Oregon Trail.
