Standing in the Light: The Captive Diary of Catharine Carey Logan, Delaware Valley, Pennsylvania, 1763 by Mary Pope Osborne

5.0

As a long time fan of the Dear America books and Mary Pope Osborne in general, Standing in the Light was, Standing in the Light was easily tied with my other favorite in the Dear America series, Voyage on the Great Titanic (I read both multiple times, even when I was way past the targeted age). I loved Catharine's character development as she went from terrified of the local Lenape tribe to finding herself a very different person when she finally went home, even falling in love with one the boys in the tribe. If Mary Pope Osborne wrote a ya or adult version of this book, I would pick it up in a heartbeat.
