Summary: The Wanderer
Review: it is about a girl who getting to know who she is and realize her past and accept it .she travels with her 3uncles and 2 cousins across the ocean and becomes a part of her family. SHE is very deep and i feel that people who read this book can take away a new way to look at their fears, life,family, and who they are.I liked the book because it was different in plot and was imaginative.

Summary: Amazing!!! I devoured it.
Review: This book is wonderful!!! It follows the journey of Sophie, a 13 year-old girl,as she takes a somewhat perilous boat trip with her relatives, and comes to terms with some difficult times in in her past. Another great thing is that part of the book is written in the point of view of her cousin, Cody. This adds a fresh quality to the book. I really enjoyed it, and I won't tell more of the plot, and ruin it. Though that would be hard to do! I am a little older than the age for this category, but I couldn't put 14.I think that if the book is good, who cares what age it's written for!!! Bravo, Sharon Creech!!!

Summary: Recommended!!!
Review: I thought this book was pretty good but I think Sharon Creech's Walk Two Moons was better. I like the way this book is told from Sophie's and Cody's point of view. It's neat to see what they think of the same thing. I think I would recommend this book to my friends because it's a fast pace book that's pretty easy to read.

Summary: AWESOME!
Review: This is an awesome book about a girl named Sophie traveling on a boat with her 3 uncles and 2 cousins(all boys). She shows them that she can do things besides cooking and cleaning and makes them eat thier words. She travels with them across the ocean to 'Bompie' thier grandfather. Along the way she learns new things about her fellow sailors that she never knew. It is an amazing book about a girl and her journey to meet her granfather. I would highly recomend it to any teenagers or older people.

Summary: The Wanderer
Review: Sailing from the USA to Europe, on a boat named "The Wanderer"! Sophie, Cody, and their families (except for Sophies parents) are sailing across the ocean. The book explains exactly how it would be sailing. At one point there is a wave and Ms.Creech describes in a detailed way that make you feel like you are actually Cody or Sophie. The book is excellent and I recommend that you read it.

Summary: DOESN'T DESERVE NEWBERRY HONOR !!!!!!!
Review: This book was not up to Sharon Creech's usual standards. The book was boring and silly. I hope her next book is better. Walk two Moons is fantastic though.

Summary: A voyage of self-discovery
Review: The similarities between The Wanderer and Walk Two Moons were striking, as both young female protagonists set out on a lengthy journey and gain significant family- and self-awareness through storytelling. I was completely captivated by Sophie's spunk and ability to hold her own with a crew of male family members on a sailing voyage across the Atlantic. Creech dedicated the book to her own daughter, Karin, who also made a journey across the sea. The reader was given a glimpse of the concern of Sophie's mother and the courage it must have taken to allow the thirteen-year-old to set off on such a voyage. The descriptions of the storms encountered at sea ring true and heighten the adventure of the story. These experiences effect changes on the lives of the travelers and on their relationships with one another. Great family and character studies!
