(3) 4-6 Ten-year-old Lizzy lives in what is now Tennessee and loves her family's late-eighteenth-century pioneering life. But she dreads autumn, when her bouts of asthma become more severe. As she faces the possibility of her impending death, she chooses to live fully in the present rather than fear the future. Lizzy's a sympathetic heroine who faces uncertainty with aplomb. This well-developed story also offers insight into early medical practices.
