Summary: This is not a typical King story...
Review: nonetheless, it was extremely good, give it time, and be patient. It's one of those books you just have to let devolop. Fans of King's "bloodbath" stories won't enjoy this one too much. Enjoyment hinges on your identification with the feelings of the main character, an 8 year old girl... if you are not the empathtic type, I'd suggest finding another King book to read.

Summary: Not one of his best
Review: I've read everything Stephen King's published, and I didn't think this one was a masterpiece. The story was incredibly repetitive, and the main character was unbelievable. I could feel the fear of being lost in the woods, but after a while I didn't care anymore.

Summary: THE "KING" HAS DEFINETELY LOST THE CROWN!
Review: After "Bag of Bones", another novel that testify the new writing style of Stephen King. I don't like it at all! The plot of this book is simple, there's only one character. In short: just a good tale for kids, nothing more, nothing less. A REAL fan of the REAL Stephen King can't to anything but missing the novels that consecrated him the King of Horror.

Summary: Short and sweet
Review: This is shortest Stephen King book I've ever read but it is one of his best. King has the ability to really get you entranced by his characters and this is no exception. I raced through this book in a couple of hours feeling that I was lost in the woods. Most of his books lately are warped in some way but this one is totally believable.

Summary: It goes to show Stephen King can write anything!
Review: Stephen King can write about Vampires to a little Girl lost in the woods and scare the pants off us,and this book shows us just that.Anyone who is a Stephen King fan (and even if there not) will enjoy this book.

Summary: Just right for the "boys of summertime"...
Review: I have to admit since reading "Tommy Knockers" I have had a difficult time even considering getting back into a SK "Politico-Novel" all that glow in the dark stuff regarding N-power took too much away from what we all like the scarry stuff...but this one is very well written once you get past the 3 dudes on the bank of the stream. Give it a try if you ready to see a more mature King.

Summary: THE WORST BOOK I'VE EVER READ!!!!!!!!
Review: If I could, I'd give this book NO STARS!!! It was absolutely the most boring, nothing book I've ever read....and I love Steven King. Poorly written (I swear, he wrote it in the hospital while under anesthesia), no story, no suspense. I kept waiting for something to happen, for some suspense, for an interesting story, but this book bored me to tears. In fact, I speed read the last half of the book just to get to the end to see if something interesting would happen, but nothing did. Was this written for a 9 year old????? It sure seemed like it. Please, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!! I can't say enough awful things about this awful book. STEVEN KING, WHAT WAS WRONG WITH YOU???!!!

Summary: King Hits a HOME RUN!!!
Review: As a grown woman who was once that lost little girl, waiting for 'it' to pounce on me from behind the bushes, or under my bed...I was caught. King reached into the recesses of a childs mind (or MY mind!) and brought forth all the fearful imaginations, the terrors of the unknown, and the real dangers of being small in such a big big world...and made us FEEL that all over again. Only this time...we were BRAVE. King is taking his work a step further. No longer is he settling for the rush of terror and in your face horror. Now he is expecting more of his readers. Forcing us to see beyond the words and into the real terrors. "what if...?" "what is...?" "what might...?" and the greatest terror of all "where...?" Bravo!!!

Summary: Don't waste your money
Review: By far the slowest King book I've ever read. Too much about baseball and not enough about the wilderness. PREDICTABLE
Rating:
Summary: A MUST READ FOR ANYONE THATS EVER BEEN LOST!!!!
Review: I feel that Mr. King captured the essence of innocence. A young girl lost in the woods with nothing but a few items and a great imagination. A must read for anyone who has ever been lost as a child, even if just for a hour. The way she used her imagination to get her through the roughest of times is a reminder that we all should teach our children the importence of imagination and good role models.
