Book Reviews of Toliver's Secret
Book Review: Great Historical Fiction for Kids!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was a perfect novel to illustrate the perils of war, and the American Revolution for my fifth grade class. I used it as the middle level novel for my American Revolution literature circles. It worked extremely well, and I felt my average readers got as much out of our studies as my advanced readers who were able to read a more challenging novel. I highly recommend this book.

this age level."--Booklist.
