The Cabin Faced West

Summary: Do NOT Read This Book
Review: A few years ago, we read this book in class. We had literary circles that we read it in. Our group was assigned this book, The Cabin Faced West, and we despised it with a passion. This book lacks a plot, and is one of the most boring books that I have ever read. I am an avid reader, and this is perhaps one of the few books that I have ever disliked. Not only am I surprized at the number of people who have posted good reviews on this book, I am also surprized at the number of people who actually take their time to read this trash. Whatever you do, DO NOT read this book. It is a waste of your time.

Summary: An Inspirational Histoical Story
Review: I think this book,The Cabin Faced West, is an exiting book to read becouse it tells about a little girl who has no friend around but this really anoying boy named Andy Mcphale is the onely other kid on hmilton hill. This book is an inspiaring book and I would recomend this book to whoever has never read this exciting-back-in-time-pioneer-time book. It kind of tells a true story about Mr. Washington, our first United States president, had dinner with the Hamilton Family. Well, I don't want to give away the secret between Arthur Scott and Ann Hamilton. If I could I would give this book four or five start beacuse this book really teaches you about historical fiction that really happened but was a long time ago. Half of this book is not really true but the other haif is.

Summary: An awsome book
Review: The novel I read is an awesome book. The main character in my book is Ann Hamilton, a young English girl trying to live in the West. She had to leave her dearest cousin, Margaret who was living in England. She had to give up being clean, wearing clean clothes, and wearing shoes. She out grew the clothes she wore in England, so Ann and her family had to make all their clothes by hand, because there were no shops, or markets near by. Ann lived in the West on a farm, where they grew beans, corn, and cabbage etc.

I gave this book five stars because it was a very interesting novel. It was interesting because I got to read about how Ann had to live in a totally new place, where she had no church, no school, and no market like the markets she had in England. In this book there was nothing I didn't like, I admired Ann when she moved to a new place, because she dealt with it very well. It was very neat to learn about how she got to meet General Washington. I especially liked this book because it had a very happy ending.

Summary: Do NOT Read This Book
Review: What better way for a child to learn history than through reading a well-written, fascinating story set in a previous era? This book is outstanding in that category. The history is authentic, the story engaging, the reading level accessible for an elementary age reader. I especially appreciated the realistic and warm family relationships in the book. Beautiful themes of adjusting to change and accepting new challenges. My 6-year-old daughter enjoyed it as much as I did.
