About the story

A warning must travel through the dark, and more than one rider has a part to play. In Boston, Eli and Limo meet Mercy Reed as lanterns, river crossings, and uncertain roads draw them into a long night. Who will get through, and what will the waiting families hear? Follow the journey toward Lexington and Concord while discovering the courage of messengers, neighbors, and children whose next useful step may be much smaller than a famous ride.

A question to carry home

Why should we remember the many people who helped, even when one name becomes famous?
