In 1861 ten-year-old Rachel Franklin and her family are pulled into
the midst of the Civil War. Though at first the glory of fighting
for the southern Cause brought pride and excitement into the
Franklin home, the truth of war's hardships soon become apparent.
Before the war the biggest worries for Rachel were using proper
manners and controlling her jealousy towards her brother Bud's
sweetheart, Suzanna Wade. Now Rachel and her mother must work the
gardens, pick cotton, tend to their wounded men, and wait between
letters with only hope that their loved ones survive. "We must be
strong," Mama tells her, and on the night when Rachel must deliver
an important message for Papa to save the lives of countless men,
she learns the true meaning of bravery when she becomes a little
Rebel in Petticoats.
