Thirteen-year-old Betsy Miller is shocked when her parents decide to move from their home in Boston to the rugged frontier city of Cincinnati. They'll take a difficult, weeks-long journey by boat down the Ohio River. If that's not bad enough, Betsy's annoying cousin George is also making the trip--with his equally annoying dog. Why does she have to leave Boston and the friends she has there? What will her new life in Cincinnati be like? Will her family's faith even bring them though the trip? Let the Sister's In Time series take you back to 1808--where you may find that Betsy Miller isn't that much different than you! Recommended for ages 8 to 12.
