Read The Root Cellar Storyline:
It looked like an ordinary root cellar--And if twelve-year-old Rose hadn't been so unhappy in her new home, where she'd been sent to live with unknown relatives, she probably would never have fled down the stairs to the root cellar in the first place. And if she hadn't, she never would have climbed up into another century, the world of the 1860s, and the chaos of Civil War--Scott Cameron's remarkable illustrations bring the past and a whole cast of delightful characters to life in this magnificent book.From the Hardcover edition.Pages of The Root Cellar :
