It is a true story about a 14-year old girl named Madeline from “New France” (Canada). She and her 10 and 12 year old brothers help save a fort stockade. Madeline’s mother and father were gone so she took command of the fort. I really liked Madeline's courage, when she was afraid she kept it to herself. It is an adventurous book!
