Rating:  Summary: The land I lost , written by Huynh Quang Nhuong( Author) Review: This Adventure story is full of dangerous fun and sorrow. Huynh Quang Nhuong lives in a small hamlet (village)in the central high lands of vietnam. The hamlet he lives in has a jungle on one side in which they must watch for jungle cats, lone hogs and the most dangerous the horse snake. And on the other is a river which Crocodiles live in. Many of the crocodiles are man eaters like mister short. In the begin of the story you meet Tank the Water bufflo. Tank isn't your regular water bufflo. He is bred between a lowland female because it would be patient and A moutainous bull so it would have the fierce fighting able. The reason I choose this book was because love the outdoors. when I six years old I live in a village in Alaska and I hunted and fished all the time.
Rating:  Summary: great book Review: This is an excellent book for children, and adults about a very different kind of childhood from the one they are experiencing. It is funny, warm, and educational and very well written. The style is particularly impressive, given that the author is not a native English speaker. I'm glad to know he's written more books and I hope he continues to write about his life in Vietnam.
