I started the Frances Tucket series today. Book 1: In 1848, while on a wagon train headed for Oregon, fourteen-year-old Francis Tucket is kidnapped by Pawnee Indians and then falls in with a one-armed trapper who teaches him how to live in the wild. Book 2: Frances heads out on his own when he realizes he‘s no longer a boy but a man.

And somehow he knew he'd better not look back at Mr. Grimes--not even to wave goodbye.

Reminds me of the Oregon trail game I used to play in school.

This is a great example of a coming of age story. Francis thinks he is all ready to grow up and adventure but runs into more trouble than he expects. It also teaches kids what was like on the Oregon trail

“But that was how it had been in the farm in Missouri where they had a big house and barn.”
