Rebecca of Blossom Prairie

Author: Maurine Walpole Lies

Rebecca of Blossom Prairie is about a girl named Rebecca who meets two very important people. She is rich at first, then she gets married. After that  she has kids, but gets unlucky, for example: her family turns poor. Then she decides to move to Red River, Texas! Since it was back then, she went on the Oregon trail. Along the way she meets another family who has something in common. She and her family go through a lot of problems such as falling behind.  In the end, she does get to Red River, Texas.                                                    

This book is seen through the eyes of one of Rebecca's kids, Kitty. Since this family travels by wagon, so many things can go wrong. It is very exciting because she finds  different ways to solve the problems. She also has so many kids. You probably would love the book as much as me. If you love  adventures, then this book is for you! It will teach you to trust your family. Let's take when Rebecca let Louisa fix  a snakebite.

I think the hardest decision that she had to make would be to decide if she wanted to move to Blossom Prairie. She did make the right decision in my opinion because her kids could have a better life.
