We've been reading a lot about the Am Revolution and Mollusc would like a book from either the Tory or Redcoat's point of view. Anyone know of such a book for kids?

I order books from amazon uk. You could do a search for American Revelution or American war of independence. I've been wanting to get this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0803281927/qid=1110606494/sr=1-9/ref=sr_1_27_9/202-3107624-0316633

Might be more advanced than you are looking for though.

ETA: I just checked and they have that one from Amazon US also.

Well I dont' know if it is really from a tory point of view but DD read a Dear America book this year that was about a girl living in Colonies whose family were tories. It is a diary style book, of a 12-13ish year old girl and what she saw/went through with her family. Dear America does alot of these style books. Interesting reads for DD, and at least Historically based.

We just checked out from the library.
