The Courage of Sarah Noble, by Alice Dalgliesh

In 1707, young Sarah Noble and her father traveled through the wilderness to build a new home for their family. Sarah was only eight but her mother always told her to “keep your courage up,” Sarah Noble. Sarah found out that it was not always easy to feel brave as she encountered wild animals, dark woods, and Indians. Sarah was to come along to be the cook for her father.

This true story is inspiring as she meets new Indian friends. Her father builds a nice cabin for the family and returns home alone to retrieve the other family members. Sarah learns that to be afraid and to be brave is the greatest courage of all.
