The Misadventures of Maude March by Audrey Couloumbis

I loved this book. My husband loves historical fiction so I bought this book for him. This book is set in 1869 in Iowa and Missouri. It is almost on the edge of the frontier. The heroines are a couple of orphaned young girls 11 and 15 years old. I just loved their spunky attitude and they never feel sorry for themselves. Everything in the world conspires against them yet they never give up. They just keep going. Loved this book.
