 | Johnny Tremain by Esther Forbes
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.01 Good, for the most part. There is the historical context of this book, and then the story part. It seems the author tired really hard to make the two meet, but I kept hoping for more story, or more history. She kind of left me wanting a bit more of both. Maybe the end just felt rushed to me, I am not sure. This is a classic, and worth reading if you haven't, but once is enough for me.
