"Preller stirs doses of American history into a first-rate road trip that does traditional double-duty as plot device and coming-of-age metaphor. . . . Will survives a meeting with a bear and a spill into dangerous rapids—tests of courage that will help him weather the bad news that awaits him at home." —Booklist, starred review
"Whatever young explorers look for on their literary road trips, they'll find it here." —The Bulletin "Despite the emotional heft, there is plenty of action . . . A middle grade winner to hand to fans of history, adventure, and family drama." —School Library Journal
