Summary: Better than Walk Two Moons!
Review: I really Loved this book. I also read Walk Two Moons and really liked that too, but I thought that this one was really good! It's about a girl named Zinny Taylor who over the summer finds this trail in her backyard and spends her whole summer on it. And there is an older boy who likes Zinny and keeps bringing her gifts trying to show her that he likes her. Zinny is 13 so it's kind of a fun-romantic just light stuff if you know what I mean. BUT I really liked the book and I hope that you read it if you like Sharon Creech's other books!

Summary: My Favorite
Review: I really liked this book. The whole thing was fabulous. The realism, how it goes from past to present, how anyone can relate to it, the distict personalities, and especially the main characters. Everyone who reads this book is sure to enjoy. Zinny is the main character she finds a trail and through the story remembers things and finds out something she'been wondering about for a long time. She is a quiet girl who doesn't get reconized until she finds a trail which makes her feel special. The clears the trail and people from all around come to seethe beautifull zinnias along the trail.

Summary: Quite good, but not one of her best.
Review: I thouht this book was a brilliant idea- i loved the idea of clearing a trail, and looking back on her past as she (Zinny) did so. But all the way i was waiting for a kind of climax, or something, like there was in 'Walk two Moons' (one of my favourite books). I didn't find the end very satisfying.

Summary: A book for people of all ages
Review: This book is one of the best books I have ever read. The book is about a quiet girl named Zinny who is part of a very large family, so she isn't realy noticed. Zinny was very close to her cousin named Rose when she was little, until they both caught a horrible sickness and Rose died. Then a long while later Zinny's aunt dies and Zinney blames herself for both deaths. Zinny's uncle seems to be driven made by the death of his wife and child. The uncle runs after a figure that only he and Zinny's little brother,Ben, can see. The figure he runs after he calls his REDBIRD which is the name he called his wife. Zinny discovers an old trail of which she uncovers and plants flowers along, she renames the trail Redbird. Along this trail Zinny finds comfort, and she finnaly stops blaming herself for the death of her aunt and cousin. Jake Boone is also a key figure in this story. He has quite a crush on Zinny and all Zinny thinks is that he is using her to get to her older sister May, like all the other boys that ever showed any interest in her. I think that Sharon Creech did a wonderfull job of writting this book and I strongly suggest that you read it.

Summary: An amazing book by Sharon Creech!
Review: This book was an awesome book. It was about a girl named Zinnia (Zinny for short). Zinny is kind of lost in her big family with her three sisters, her three brothers, her parents, and her aunt and uncle. When a tragic incident happens with her Aunt Jessie, she is beside herself with grief, and is convinced that what happened was her fault. One day, she is walking behind her house, and sees an overgrown trail, and decides to uncover the whole thing, from her little town all the way to Chocton. It turns out to be a very long way, and constantly along the trail, she finds things that relate to what is happening in her life at the moment. The end is very satisfying, and I am convinced that anyone (girls especially) from the ages of 10 to probably 14 or so will really enjoy this thought-provoking novel.
