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.

Mixed with historical ficiton!we are sort of learning this in our history class and i liked hearing about it.
My favorite part of the book is when the British come to their boat. They were coming to board their ship. They were coming in longboats. Flying an American flag.
