About this book
A Little Maid of Ticonderoga by Alice Turner Curtis transports listeners to the Green Mountains, where young Faith's courage and curiosity meet the thunder of history during the American Revolution. Set against the struggle for control of Fort Ticonderoga and the watchful presence of Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys, this historical fiction adventure follows Faith as she journeys across Lake Champlain, spends a winter near the fort, and discovers a secret that may help the patriots she admires.
Curtis blends domestic warmth and frontier peril—friendly neighbors, loyal bears, family ties, and whispered plans—into a coming-of-age tale that introduces children to revolutionary-era people, places, and values without spoiling the story’s surprises. Rich with period detail, gentle suspense, and themes of bravery, loyalty, and service, the novel evokes life in early Vermont and the wider drama of America’s fight for independence.
Ideal for young listeners, families, and fans of historical fiction or American history, this audiobook is a charming, informative pick for classroom listening or cozy storytime, bringing a lesser-known corner of the Revolution vividly to life.
