Amelia's War review by SHC
Profile Picture
SHC

Ann Rinaldi writes a lot of very good historical fiction books that tell history through the eyes of a fictional character. This is a shorter one about a girl who lives in Hagerstown, Maryland during the Civil War. Although she tries to stay neutral during the war, in the end she does something that saves the day for her community.
