To be honest, it's hard as an American to read a Revolutionary War book where the protagonist is a Loyalist. But I really appreciate how Noah, the main character, has to examine where his loyalties lie throughout this book. How he has to examine each side's perspective and weigh the pros and cons of siding with each. I think this is a great book to discuss with kids about how good and bad in politics is almost never black and white. This is my favorite type of book because it was very character driven and not a ton of plot happens, but I do think that it is a fascinating read, especially for the middle grade crowd.
Content Warning: murder, racism, war violence
