Cute book, with some really great characters. I really appreciate that the main character, Jessie, was disabled. While I felt there was some insensitivity about Grania O'Malley and her ‘owning' America and allowing the British to invade it despite the Native Americans already living there, it wasn't too distracting from the story about saving the Big Hill, which was very wholesome and enjoyable to read.
