Synopsis

On their vacation, Tilly, Molly, and Tom literally fall into the history of America's National Road. They see giants, nearly get kidnapped, and help an escaped slave. And that’s just the start!
Tilly "writes" the book. She is African American. That gives her a unique perspective when the children become involved in some events in the history of the National Road, as when they meet a man who has escaped slavery. Russell Shorto, author of Revolution Song says "Nayano Taylor-Neumann takes us back through time, giving readers a vivid sense of what it was like to travel one of America’s vital pioneer routes.”
Nayano Taylor-Neumann lives in Cumberland MD where Tilly, Molly, and Tom "live". She has a PhD in history and is an educator.
