Follow the journey of Eliza Dibble Sawtell who shares her story when, as a six-year-old child, she left her home in Iowa in a covered wagon and traveled on the Oregon Trail in 1852.

Hear of the adventures Eliza Dibble Sawtell experienced; the hardships, the joys, as well as the sorrows. Historical photographs and journals will be used to tell this story.

Lynn Rymarz's stories, “Ida B. Wells—Justice For All,” and “Mordecai Brown: Pitching For the Pennant” were published in Highlights children’s magazine, along with “About The Cow That Started That Fire” and “Unearthing The Arabia,” published in 2016. Her interest in history has spilled over to entertaining audiences with historical portrayals of women.
