Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This was a great read!
Review: I bought this book for my 13-year-old son. I had read a positive review about it and I thought I would grab him a copy; I am sure glad I did! My son really enjoyed the story, and now several of his school chums are reading it, too. By the way, I even read it and enjoyed it, too. My favorite thing about this title is that it promotes education, in a rather subtle way, but it never gets in the way of an exciting, fast-moving adventure. It's totally positive and inspiring!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good adventure story
Review: I just got my hands on this neat little book. It is really a quick-moving, exciting, modern story that is reminiscent of colorful classics such as Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, the Hardy Boys Mysteries, and tales of adventure and cultural depth. I believe pre-teens and teens, and people of all ages, will find this imaginative story inspiring and extremely entertaining. I'm glad I read it, and I think it serves a healthy, refreshing slice of Appalachian culture. Family friendly.
