(4) 4-6 Seveteen-year-old Lovisa is thrilled to be heading west in 1845. She believes her family is well prepared for the hardships, but a shortcut and illness wreak havoc. Based on a true story, the novel offers a captivating account of the trials of the Oregon Trail--despite some predictable plot devices and underdeveloped characters. Black-and-white photos and an author's note are included.
