Princess In the Pigpen

by Jane Resh Thomas

Summary: Elizabeth, a duke's daughter sick with fever, travels through time from Elizabethan England to a farm in modern Iowa, where she has difficulty convincing anyone of the truth of her story.

I read this when I was young and found Elizabeth’s struggles with modern colloquialisms amusing. I felt her frustration when no one would believe her, but also enjoyed the silly humor of this book
