"The Sacrifice" by Kathleen Benner Vojnar Duble tells the story of a young girl named Berta who faces the trials of life in a small, Puritan community during the time of the Salem witch trials. Torn between her loyalty to her family and the community's rising hysteria, Berta grapples with her own fears and the weight of her choices. As the lines between right and wrong blur, she must confront the consequences of fear, superstition, and sacrifice. The narrative explores themes of courage, betrayal, and the struggle for personal integrity in a time of societal madness. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
