Summary: Review from an 8th graders point of view
Review: I think this book is suppurbly writen and is great for any one who likes reading strong, gripping books. The auther does a wounderful job of flowing through the stages of someone who has lost a loved one. Great for young Adults.

Summary: A wonderful adventure
Review: I thought this book was an exciting story. It is definitely a page turner. If you like stories with runaways hiding in the mountains, this book is for you. It was set in 1969, which makes it even better since there aren't very many modern appliances like TV to get in the way of the plot. This story gave me this feeling which I can't quite explain, but the feeling was wonderful. I am talking too much, so I will leave you to decide for yourself if you want to read this book, although anyone in middle school or high school would definitely like it if they like adventures and reading.

Summary: Stories like this live on in your heart.
Review: Sid Hite has created a cast of characters you would want to know. He brings you into the story masterfully, makes you care for each and every person in the story, makes you hope for the best in their lives. His descriptions of the time in which the story takes place, the people, the places and events, pull you into the story and don't let you out, even when the tale is "finished". Stories like this live on in your heart. I especially liked his description of a hurricane which moved inland, and how it affected the weather miles away, and how that in turn has such a profound affect on the lives of each of the characters. A wonderfully written tale. I am looking forward to future tales.---Geoffrey C. Thomas
