Roughing It on the Oregon Trail
Preview: Hear it

Covered wagons and moving villages are not what Liz and Lenny had in mind when they arrived at Grandmas house. But Liz and Lenny dont have your average grandmother....With the help of Grandmas magic hat, the twins embark on a timetraveling adventure back to 1843, roughing it on the Oregon Trail. From scaling mountains and fording rivers to cooking slamjohns and sowbellies over buffalo chips, Liz and Lenny find out firsthand that living history is a whole lot different than just learning about it!Diane Stanleys humorous and historically accurate depiction of daytoday life on the Oregon Trail is brought to life by Holly Berrys energetic illustrations. Real dialogue and a diverse, authentic cast of characters transport young readers into an exciting page of American history.
