Were the O'Malley's a real family? | Dave | They were real to Jake, but no they didn't actually exist in history. |
The day they were crossing the icey river, did the handcart company just think that jake died? | Cierra | As odd as it may sound, I don't know the answer to your question. As I write, I follow the story line and leave the rest up to the imagination of the reader. So you get to decide! |
Is this a true story? | Amy | Most of the pioneer stories described in Journey of the Heart are true. With the exception of the O'Malley family, all of the pioneers Jake met were actual pioneers--including Annie. You can learn more about each of them through Jake's research notes which you can download at www.journeyoftheheartbook.com/notesdownload. |
Are the people that portrayed Annie and Jake people you know? | Tylee | Well I've never met Annie, but in a way I know her. She is my great, great grandma. So yes, I know her and hope that someday when I get to meet her she will forgive me for using her in a story. Jake is a fictional character. |
