Summary: A wonderful book.....
Review: This is one of my favorite books! it was very warm and in some parts sad and mysterious. The girl in the story searches for her mother who left one morning and promised she'd be back when the tulips bloom. But she finds more than she expects in this really good book!

Summary: Complex plot, some surprises, enjoyable to read, deserves 5!
Review: This book, in my opinion, is an excellent book that I've read many times. Inside this book are some ingredients to a truely touching novel. First, there's that crazy, wild and funny areas that cover a very sad core. I'm talking about, of course, Phoebe Winterbottom, who's perfect life was untouched by anything out of the ordinary. When tragedy hits, however, she is unprepared for a shocking disappearence, leaving her lost and confused. Second, there's the dreaming and difficult remembering that Salamanca goes through. As she recalls the past, she wishes that she had done so many things differently to change the position she's in now. This leaves the reader saying, "Awww." Overall, this novel isn't the kind that you read and forget. Everything in it sticks to your mind ......SUMMARY: Salamanca's mother, Chanhassen "Sugar" Pickford Hiddle, had promised to come back to her daughter and husband before the tulips on their farm bloomed. She had just needed a bit of time alone to clear her heart of dark thoughts, taking a cross-country trip from Bybanks, Kentucky, to Lewiston, Idaho. But after the tulips bloomed and withered, she still hadn't come back. Feeling that the farm reminded him too much of his bygone wife, Salamanca's father takes his daughter and eccentric parents to the Ohio city of Euclid. Thinking that she should have a chance to visit her mother, Gramps and Grams bring Salamanca to Lewiston, tracing her mother's footsteps and stopping at every landmark she had seen. While on the way, Salamanca tells her grandparents the wacky story of Phoebe Winterbottom, a girl who Salamanca met in her Euclid school. Salamanca realizes while narrating the tale how similar she and Phoebe are, both with departed mothers, and both acting alike while fighting to get over it. There's a whole other story about Phoebe also. SUMMARY: Phoebe Winterbottom is a quiet girl, whose fickle imagination is unrivaled by none. In her world, people are either perfect or just plain wicked. That's what attracts Salamanca, who becomes her best friend and gets involved in Phoebe's abnormal life. The trouble begins when an odd young man (who Phoebe automatically points out to be a raving lunatic) is seen lurking around her house, asking questions about her family and mother. Once in a while, cryptic messages would be found written on blue paper on Phoebe's doorstep. Then, something happens that changes Phoebe's life as it is. Phoebe's mother disappears, leaving no note of reason. Phoebe, being how she is, convinces herself that the lunatic had kidnapped her, because she loved her and wouldn't leave on purpose. Read this book! Its an excellent book to add to your collection, and you won't regret it. I promise!

Summary: Refreshingly Unique
Review: It seems like so many authors fall into the trap of "ho-hum" writing, and their book read like a million others. Sharon Creech is a wonderful exeception to this theory. "Walk Two Moons" is anything but ordinary as it weaves together multiple stories. It begins with Salamenca Tree Hiddle, who is taking a trip across the country with her grandparents to visit her mother, who left Sal and her father a while back. Soon, we hear the story of Sal's eccentric friend, Phoebe, who has a mortal fear of cholesterol and lunatics. Sharon Creech skillfully weaves Phoebe's story, Sal's thoughts about her mother's leaving and her new life, and bittersweet tale of her Sal's grandparents into a rich, honest, feeling, and most of all UNIQUE novel! Read and enjoy!

Summary: No wonder it won a Newberry Medal
Review: This is a really great book and we recommend it to kids 9 and up and to adults too. This book will keep you guessing until the very end. Sure, it has 44 chapters but the print is big and most chapters are reasonably short. You won't be able to put this book down!!

Summary: A fascinating story
Review: I have read many books in my life and this one is at the top. As 13-year old Salamanca Tree Hiddle entertains her grandparents during a car trip to visit Sal's mother I was captivated. She tells the story of Phoebe Winterbottom and her outrageous life along with her own story. This story is both sad and enlightening. I liked it because it had some suprise twists and turns. I highly reccomend this book to anyone who is willing to read it.

Summary: Best Book- Walk Two Moons
Review: I though that the book Walk Two Moons was a grreat book for children of all ages. My favorite character is Salamanca Tree Hiddle. I liked her because she would not stop trying to bring her mom back home. She was determined. My favorite part of this book was when Pheopbe and Salamanca went to Mary Lou's house and Pheobe kept cimplaining about cholesteroll. I would recommend this book to every one.

Summary: This one's a keeper!
Review: Walk Two Moons is a fabulous book. It's about a girl and her dad. They had just moved. Sal and her grandparents then decided to go to Idaho. That's where Sal's mother went when her father and mother broke up. On the way, Sal starts to tell a story about a girl named Pheobe. Pheobe has a wild imagination. While she's telling Pheobe's story, her own story unfolds. The book has many sad moments, and happy moments. I could barely put the book down. If you're looking for a wonderful book, I would strongly recommend Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech.

Summary: Walk Two Moons
Review: Would you ever like to go to Idaho in search for your mother? Well that's what happens in Sharon Creech's Walk Two Moons. Walk Two Moons is like two stories in one, because Phoebe's mother goes away and so does Sal's. Even though this book doesn't have any pictures, the author uses so many adjectives you can see pictures in your head. I like this book because it's exiting. I think the lesson or moral is appreciate things while you have them. I recommend this book for very mature readers of ages 9 to 15 and also some adults will enjoy this book.
