My Review: Quite honestly the book was a bit too simple for my tastes, but I believe that is mostly due to the fact that it was written in the form of a children's chapter book.
So basically the only thing I really thought would have improved it, would be more details.
But I think that the basic story will translate well to film and I plan to see the movie. I think that this book would be best suited for children around the age of eight because of the reading level, and the slight violence, (not explicit).
Overall, this was a good story and I liked how it was based on a true story, I am looking forward to seeing how the movie turns out :)

About Alone Yet Not Alone (novelization):
Settled in the Blue Mountains of Pennsylvania, deep within America's new frontier, the Leininger family celebrates the blessings of a beautiful homestead and bountiful harvest. That is, until tragedy strikes with the beginning of the French and Indian War and the devastating raid known as the Penn's Creek Massacre.
The lives of this simple, God-fearing family are forever altered when Barbara and Regina, two young sisters, are carried away by the Delaware tribe. Driven by their faith in God and the powerful bonds of family, Barbara and Regina hold firmly to the belief that they are never alone, even in their darkest hour, and that they will be reunited again.
Rich in historical details, Alone Yet Not Alone is an inspirational, true story of a family caught in the cross fire of the French and Indian War.
