CANYONS

Rating:
Summary: Excellent a must read!!
Review: Canyons is an exceptional book about a teenage boy, Brennan and an indian boy, Coyote Runs. I think Gary Paulsen did an amazing job with the story line. I would recommend it to anyone it just isn't a book for children. I have read it three times and plan on reading it to my students every year.

Summary: Canyons
Review: Canyons is an interesting book. It is about Brennan, a boy who lives with his mother. His father left the family when he was very young, and he has never forgiven him. Brennan liked to run around to free himself from all the problems he was going through. One day, Brennan went camping accompanied by Bill, his mother, and some children. It was then that Brennan found a skull. Later on, he realized that couldn't talk about the skull and somehow he felt attached to it...

Summary: This book will hold your interest.
Review: Canyons was a very suspenseful book. I thought the book was very interesting also. The book was suspenseful because it had a lot of parts that you would not expect to read. The book was very detailed on how people do things in the story. The story was about a kid about 15 years old who is part of the 1860's time. His name was Coyote Runs . He was part of an Indian group called the Apaches . He was on a raid with his best friend. They went on raid to steal horse from the Mexicans. They have to cross the border from Texas to Mexico. During this time there was Bluebelly soldiers on the border. So the Apaches had to kill any Bluebellies that got in their way. If you want to find out more read the book. I would recommend this book to people in 9th grade. It's a really interesting book.
