Liberty's Kids, Vol. 1

James and Sarah are from two different worlds but both are teenage reporters for Ben Franklin’s newspaper, the Philadelphia Gazette. James who’s from America brings the colonists’ point of view while Sarah who’s an Englishwoman stranded by fate in America brings hers. The two cover America’s push for independence beginning with The Boston Tea Party right up to the moment that the famous George Washington comes to town to take command of the large army. Caught on opposite sides of the hostilities, Ben’s teenage reporters confront the real physical dangers of the conflict, while grappling to choose between their new friendship and their countries.
