Park Avenue Princess

In the year of 1810, ten year old Gwen and her two younger brothers were orphaned when renegade Indians raided their farm, killing their parents and set fire to the cabin. They were spared from being killed because they were playing in the cornfield when the Indians struck. The children managed to rebuild a small portion of the cabin so they would have shelter in the winter months ahead. A man and his wife came to their farm and took over the cabin, making slaves of the children as they ate from the food stored in the root cellar and killed most of the chickens as well. It makes for serious, but sometimes amusing reading how the children got out of this situation.
