Description
It is June 1862. Lisa and her family are now in Kamloops, almost at the end of their journey to Cariboo. But with new baby Rose to take care of, Lisa’s parents are happy to stay put. Lisa can’t believe they want to stay in Kamloops and give up a chance to find gold. Then a letter arrives from her newly married cousin, Archie, and Lisa discovers an alternative. She will go to Cariboo to be with Archie and his new wife, and she’ll find gold all by herself—enough for her whole family!
Welcome back to Our Canadian Girl, and the continuing adventures of Lisa and many other smart, spirited, and courage-ous girls. They come from different places and times in Canadian history, and each of them meets some ordinary—and extra-ordinary—challenges in her day-to-day life.
