Standing in the Light: The Captive Diary of Catharine Carey Logan, Delaware Valley, Pennsylvania, 1763 by Mary Pope Osborne
5.0
A powerful read in a YA book that teaches about life with the Indians during a time of much consternation between the English and Indians. Mary Pope Osborne does a wonderful job with the lead character of Caty and it's easy to connect with her, to follow her and her younger brother on their journey.
I've read numerous Dear America (and its spinoffs) books and this one really captures a moment of history and the people involved and makes it really come to light. This book was intriguing, educational and even had heart-tugging moments. A fantastic read for any historical fan, this Dear America book is easily one of my most favorites in the entire series.
