Patty Reed's Doll: The Story of the Donner Party
Story of the trials of the Donner Party
Skillfully pieced together from authentic letters, journals, and reminisces of survivors
As narrated by eight-year-old Patty Reed's doll
Heartwarming tale of how a little girl's love for her precious doll can trascend all danger
In the winter of 1846, the Donner Party was stranded by heavy snows in the Sierra Nevada mountains. The pioneers endured bitter hardships and many of them died. But some survived, including eight-year-old Patty Reed, a girl filled with dignity and determination in the face of mortal danger. This is her story, as told by Dolly, the wooden doll she kept hidden in her dress.
