On June 28, it will be
238 years since the The Battle of Manmouth during the Revolutionary War. It was also the day Molly Pitcher became a hero
in the eyes of many of the soldiers. Do
you know her story? See it through the
eyes of a twenty-first century seventh grade princess and a nerdy brainiac that
find themselves back in time on that fateful day.
Flash to the Past
Can snooty, seventh grader Kristy Sawyer’s day get any
worse? It’s a Monday at Langdon Middle
School and first thing in the morning Kristy is sent to see Principal DeWitt.
His long, drawn out lecture makes her late for Miss Wickware’s history class.
But the worst is when she finds out she is being partnered with nerdy Larry
Peables to do an oral report on some historical Molly Picture, or Pincher, or
Pitcher. And the report is due tomorrow!
Her plan to bat her eyes and flirt with the little nerd, sure
that he will jump at the chance to do whatever she wants, blows up in her face
when he flat refuses to do the research.
Her day takes a drastic turn for the worse when she and Larry find
themselves in 1778, Trenton, New Jersey.
During their trip back in time, Kristy and Larry come face to face with
the British, George Washington, become involved in the Battle of Manmouth, and
of course, meet their oral report subject, the famous Molly Pitcher.
She has only Larry to help her figure out why they are there
and how are they going to get home.
