Journey to Nowhere

In the spring of 1815, Remembrance "Mem" Nye and her family set off in a covered wagon from their farm in Connecticut to the western New York wilderness. Mem and her mother see it as a journey to nowhere since there won't be any houses or neighbors, just endless forest. Their journey is filled with the uncertain danger of wild animals, raging storms, and cruel strangers. When Mem is unexpectedly separated from her family, she must face every danger alone while hoping to find her family again.Mary Jane Auch is the author of many popular books including Journey to Nowhere, Frozen Summer, and I Was a Third Grade Spy. She lives in Genesee County, New York, where her ancestors settled in the early 19th century.
