Sybil Ludington’s Midnight Ride (On My Own History Reader)
On a dark, cold, and rainy night in April 1777, Sybil Ludington sets out on a journey to warn American soldiers that danger is headed their way. The British are coming! They have already attacked a nearby town, and it is up to sixteen-year-old Sybil to make sure that she reaches the American soldiers before the British do. With only a large stick to defend herself, and her horse, Star, for company, Sybil rides off into the perilous night and changes the course of the American Revolution. The true story of Sybil’s bravery and perseverance are faithfully related by Marsha Amstel’s appealing text and Ellen Beier’s finely crafted illustrations.
