I must have read this a half dozen times during 4th-6th grades. I loved it. It got me started on other Scott O'Dell novels.
Billy Collins is my favorite US poet: accessible and fun, with none of the fake mysteriousness that a lot of poets try to cultivate. He's excellent on poetry readings, too.
i loved this book!i finished it pretty quickly. it was another one that i had to finish for school. it was good, and it really gave great insight into what the slaves might havebeen feelingas they were so harshly sold away from their families and into the unknown. it was a little bit young for me though.
