Author's Note
Have you ever wanted to travel back through time?
When I was writing the first Caroline stories, I often wished I could somehow get a peek at life in 1812 New York. That experience comes to life in the pages of my newest book.
The heroine of Catch The Wind uses a special compass to zip back two hundred years, and meet Caroline in person! The two have some amazing adventures…and become good friends.
Discover
A compass used by a U.S. Navy sailor during the War of 1812 plays an important role in Catch The Wind.
American Girl had an artist paint this picture of what that compass looks like.
Where To Buy
American Girl has "archived" the Caroline doll and accessories, which means they are no longer selling them. However, this Caroline book is still available from the vendors listed below—while supplies last.
NOTE: You can acquire 'as new' softcover copies of Catch the Wind and my other Caroline books directly from me, signed and personalized as you wish. Request a quote by clicking HERE.
