Hannah of Fairfield

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Donna Diamond. As eight-year-old Hannah wrestles with the challenging tasks of knitting and spinning, a greater struggle threatens to unravel her family: her teenage brother longs to join the colonial army despite the wishes of their pacifist father. Black-and-white drawings illustrate the chapter book, which offers a believable look at everyday farm life during the Revolutionary War.
