Silent to the Bone is about a young child who is captured by the Tories.

There is another book about a little girl who dresses up as a boy to bring a message to General Washington for her grandfather since he fell ill. For the life of me, I cannot think of the name of it. It is a fifth-sixth grade level.
_______________ soldier. If it comes to me, I will post again

just to add another - The Winter Hero is another Collier book...but I think just one of the brothers wrote it.
