Description
When twelve-year-old Ruthy Donohue is sent away from home, because of an awful tragedy in the fall of 1837, she has to figure out how to cope with the hardships of travel in a wagon train and how to make a temporary life for herself among complete strangers, including an irritating young man named Will Grogan. Relive the days of the pioneers as you follow Ruthy's journey from East Tennessee to southwest Missouri. Enter into her struggles as you read her private journal. Watch her learn to do things she never thought she could do and meet challenges she never dreamed she'd have.
"Exiled!" is a heartwarming and inspiring story of a young girl taking her first scary steps toward adulthood and provides a thoroughly satisfying and engrossing reading experience.
