Save Queen of Sheba is a compelling tale of survival on the Oregon Trail! Written for Children it is none-the-less enjoyable by adults. The story of a pioneer boy, named King David, just 12, trying to protect his 5 year old sister, Queen of Sheba, after an Indian attack explores all the hardships and dangers of the time, while David has to come face to face with his own beliefs and morals. A tale of courage, determination, and devotion, back dropped realistic 1850's life is well worth reading aloud to grade school children, and worth reading yourself.
