Saved by a Huckleberry,

This review is from: Cassie's Sweet Berry Pie: A Civil War Story (Hardcover)
Kids left alone are raided by hungry Civil War soldiers but the eldest cleverly uses berry juice to make everyone look like they have a really wretched case of the measles. The ruse works, and the supplies and children are left alone. This one cries out for the readers to finish up by making their own sweet berry pie!

The tale of a young girl during the American civil war,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cassie's Sweet Berry Pie: A Civil War Story (Hardcover)
Author/illustrator Karen B. Winnick's original picturebook, Cassie's Sweet Berry Pie: A Civil War Story is the tale of a young girl during the American civil war. Her father is away fighting in the army, and her mother works in the hospital tending to wounded soldiers. When Union troops raid her house for supplies, she must come up with a clever ploy to protect her family's food store, proving that huckleberries can be used for more than sweet pies! The gentle color artwork perfectly complements this tale about resourcefulness - not to mention help from the most unlikely places.
