Summary: A nice quick book about the Revolutionary War.
Comment: This story begins with a young girl who overhears her grandfather talking to her mother about needing to get a secret message delivered. After her grandfather is hurt and cannot walk, it is decided that she should deliver the message about the British soldiers to a tavern owner in a nearby town instead. Toliver's hair is cut so that she will look like a boy and won't be questionned about why she is traveling alone. Many surprises overtake Toliver as she attempts to deliver her message which is hidden inside a loaf of bread. I enjoyed this book because it was a quick read which delved into some key facts surrounding some battles during this war. It was also from a female point of view. Most times, war books are written with a male protagonist. I enjoyed also how Toliver was able to overcome her fears as she strives to deliver the message. She is willing to risk her life so that others may live.
