Midwest Mischief
Andy, a fourth grader from Indiana, whose mouth runs quicker than his brain, has found himself in trouble again. While hiding out in his mother's car, a tornado hits, and sends him back thousands of years - surrounded by Indians and praying for his life.

But Andy's free-spirited adventures are tested as he experiences major events in history, where the stormy realities of war, slavery, and racism force him to make life-changing decisions.
