Scott O'Dell is a wonderful writer. I read this book when I was in elementry school. And I wanted to revisit it now. A very powerful book for a young girl to read. I would recommend, if you get a copy of this book to keep it on the shelf. It has been forty years since I first read this book and I really enjoyed the 2nd reading even better. It was one of those experiences I remebered as a young girl and needed to repurchase the book, to experience it again. So glad I did. Very good and quick read for any adult and your daughter will love it.
This is a childhood favorite of mine. I originally bought this back in the early 90s, got lost throughout time. For the age of the book, the condition arrived pretty pristine. Definitely doing business with them again!

I read this book sixteen years ago when I was ten, unfortunate I never finished it and now that I read it again it impacted my life in a positive way. My husband also read the book and he felt the same way about it, he actually thought the story was too short because he wanted to keep reading more and more. Thank you for selling me this wonderful book, I feel that I have a treasure at home that i'm going to pass over to my children.
I first read this book in grade school back in the eighties. As an adult reading it now, there are so many things that I now understand better, I can sympathize and empathize with, and appreciate. The book is written from the perspective of its main character. It’s not a sugary beat around the bush type of story, but organic and truthful. Highly recommended readers of all levels.
