Bookroo's summary

Caroline's peaceful life shatters when a British officer captures her father, thrusting her into the turmoil of the War of 1812. As her village faces attack, Caroline must summon courage and make daring choices to aid her community. Can she stay strong and help turn the tide in a conflict that threatens everything she holds dear?

From the publisher

Caroline Abbott is doing what she loves most–sailing on Lake Ontario with Papa–when her world turns upside down. A British officer boards their sloop, announces that Britain and America are once again at war, and takes her father prisoner. As Papa is led away, Caroline promises him that she will be brave until he returns. Then the British attack her village, and it looks as if the Americans are in trouble. Can she stay steady enough to help win the day? The illustrated “Looking Back” section explores the beginning of the War of 1812.
