I think the most exciting part of my book was when Caroline gave up her carpet so that they can wrap the cannon so that the bomb would blow up .Her neighbor told that the British will start fighting .Caroline’s Gran said they can use her shawl .Caroline didn’t want her Gran to be cold so she gave her carpet to Mr. Shaw and it fit perfect. Another exciting time was when Caroline made a map for her Papa. She hoped to be able to see him and give him the map.
