"I read this with my son in about an hour. We took turns reading every few pages. It is a very simple story, but it teaches the principles of courage, love, brotherhood,etc. from an eight year old level- perfect for my children."
"We read this in one week (2 chapters a day). My boys all seemed to enjoy it and there were several laugh-outloud moments. My 5-yr-old would always ask for "another chapter".
While you don't learn a whole lot about the colonial period, you do learn enough to make the book worthwhile. All the boys voted that it was a good book and we should read it again sometime. That's very high praise from them!
The short chapters and easy vocabulary make this a great choice for beginning readers.
"Sarah and her father travel together to build a new home for their family in early 18th century America. The house is built and it is time for Sarah's father to collect the rest of the family and bring them to their new home. Sarah must remain near the new home, with a Native American family. It is a good experience for Sarah as she comes to care for the family almost as much as her own, as she sees the commonalities of the Native American family with her own. There is a general feeling of condescension, but that has to be placed in the context of the time in which this book was written. In addition, the experience of discovering the ways the families are alike makes the book worthy of reading despite the book's flaws. Newbery Honor."
