I loved this book because it tells the journey of a young girl whose father decides to move the family to Oregon to find cheap land. Her sister gets sick on the journey, and it's a long difficult journey! I learned more about the hardship of the trails for these pioneers! If you enjoy the Laura Ingalls series you will enjoy this book also. (H - Age 11)
