(3) 1-3 Ready-for-Chapters: Prairie Skies series. Illustrated by Patrick Faricy. Nine-year-old Charlie's decision to help a runaway slave increases the danger that his pioneer family, first introduced in Pioneer Summer and Cabin in the Snow, faces in the Kansas Territory, where abolitionists and proslavery factions are wrangling for control. Well paced, the story contains just enough factual information to establish the historical background without overwhelming the narrative.
Reviewer: Anne St. John
