When Washington Crossed the Delaware: A Wintertime Story for Young Patriots

40 pp. | Simon | October, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-87043-4 $16.95
(2) K-3 Illustrated by Peter M. Fiore. Using the natural voice of a storyteller, Cheney, in a spare text, tells of the despair of soldiers at Valley Forge, Washington's bold strategy to attack the British at Trenton and Princeton, and the sacrifice and bravery he exacted from his troops. Dramatic paintings create a visual narrative that parallels the text.
