Tillie Pierce is breaking out! Three years after this compelling narrative nonfiction for readers 12+ was released — in a $35 library binding sold mostly to the school market — Quindaro is proud to release Tillie Pierce: Teen Eyewitness to Gettysburg as an affordable softcover. Over the course of a hot week in July 1863, Union and Confederate forces took turns invading the streets and homes of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Homes were turned into hospitals and officers’ quarters as residents scrambled for safety. “Based mostly on Tillie’s own recollection of the conflict, this book combines that writing with Anderson’s smooth retelling to describe the weeks leading up to and following the battle from the perspective of an extremely relatable young witness.” — School Library Journal Tanya Anderson is a prolific author of children’s books and the former editorial director of Darby Creek Publishing. Her next book for Quindaro is Gunpowder Girls: The True Stories of Three Civil War Tragedies, in October 2016.
