The Free and the Brave
A magnificent tale of historical fiction for kids
Those British are coming this way. Eight thousand troops.
Eight thousand? Jacob whispered.
Jeremiah nodded. They re pouring into Washington from all directions.
At least we have our Fencibles. Jacob stood up straighter speaking of the local militia. They could push back those Red Coats.
It s the summer of 1814. The British are advancing on Baltimore, where Jacob Franks and his family live. They ve already burned down Washington, D.C. Will Baltimore be next?

But will the people of Baltimore be able to protect their beloved city? Tovah S. Yavin's magnificent story will bring the War of 1812 and the creation of The Star-Spangled Banner to life. Join Jacob and his friends as they defend the land of the free and the home of the brave.
