The Other Elizabeth

It happened one hundred years ago…it happened today…It was a lovely day in June and Elizabeth was enjoying, with her Grade Seven class, a visit to Upper Canada Village. She insisted on seeing Cook's Tavern, although she couldn't explain this strange compulsion. As Elizabeth walked into Cook's Tavern, she stepped into the past!A fire burns in the fireplace...men in buckskins sit around the tables...she is wearing a long dress of grey homespun..."Why, it's young Elizabeth Frobisher," said one of the men."But I'm not," Elizabeth wanted to say, "I'm not Elizabeth Frobisher! I'm Elizabeth Duncan!"A story to fascinate readers of all ages - rich in historical detail - but above all, a good adventure tale, beautifully told."...[A] time-shift story in which...the transition is handled with remarkable skill..." -Globe & Mail
