One night. One girl. One moment that changed history forever.
Twelve-year-old Elizabeth Clarke never expected to be a part of history. But on the night of April 18, 1775, when the quiet town of Lexington, Massachusetts, held its breath, Elizabeth found herself in the middle of it all.
From her bedroom, she heard Patriot Leaders John Hancock and Samuel Adams chat downstairs. She watched Paul Revere arrive at her house, after he gave his famous alarm. She saw neighbors gather in the dark, soldiers march down the road, and a birth of a nation.
The Midnight Writer tells the true story of that night – not through the eyes of a famous hero – but through the eyes of a young girl.
Based on primary research and real events, this beautifully illustrated picture book brings history to life in a way that feels close, real, and unforgettable. Perfect for young readers, families, and classrooms, The Midnight Writer reminds us that even the biggest moments in history were witnessed by ordinary people – and sometimes, by a twelve-year-old girl.
