The Fighting Ground by: Avi (4)


When thirteen year old Jonathan hears the tavern bell, he runs along and joins the soldiers. He thinks he is ready to fight the British. But, when actually encountering Hessians - fear overcomes him and he surrenders. So, they spare his life, but, they do capture him. They hold him captive in a now, abandoned house. The next day his fellow soldiers find him and kill the Hessians. Jonathan is happy to be back home. He is also happy to be alive after a near death situation.
