Summary: great read-aloud for a snowy day
Review: As a rural school teacher, I have read this short book to many classes on days when our schoolbus was late or stalled in the snow. The young Nebraska teacher and her brave students in this story survived a terrible blizzard by relying on each other; the memoir has become a read-aloud classic for me on the first winter storm of the year.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Winter Thunder Review
Review: I enjoyed reading Winter Thunder Thunder by Mari Sandoz. This book was about a school bus of children that is on a field trip and their bus is stranded for miles from any rescue service after a fierce blizzard. The children get out of the bus and set up a tent for everyone to stay in. The teacher and the bus driver take care of the children. Their only food is a few lunches. They were protected from the cold with regular clothes for a typical winter day. Each character has to survive the freezing cold for eight days before any rescue aids come for help. This book delivers many brave characters and a problem that has to stretch the limits of human stamina. The best part of the book is that it is based on a true story. I recommend this book to a reader who likes adventure.

Summary: THUMBS WAY DOWN
Review: This book was really nothing special. It was so predictable the title of the book should've been,"Some Young Children Get Lost in a Storm and are Saved". This book had no excitement and i don't recomend this book to anybody.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Winter Thunder
Review: This book Winter Thunder wasn't the best book in the world. But I also enjoyed it because it is a pretty good survival story. If you like books that are short, get to the point, and is a little venturous then this is the book for you.
