[LM_NET] TARGET 5th GR Revolutionary novel

[Barbara Fritz <fritzlibrary@YAHOO.COM>]

Good day all!

One of my fifth grade teachers is looking for a good
novel for a small group of boys to read on the US
Revolutionary War with a boy as the main character.
She has used Spies on the Devil's Belts in the past,
it is long out-of-print, and felt that was a great
choice. As we search for a new title to use, we find
nearly every book set in the time period has a girl as
the main character, but few strong boys. The book
needs to be at a fifth grade reading level or a little
below and somewhere between 100 and 200 pages long. 

Thanks for the help!
