Rating:  Summary: Mountain Valor Review: I really enjoy the book Mountain Valor. I would recommend it to people who like adventure and excitement, especially about wars. This book keeps you at the edge of your seat, and you have to read on. You never know what's going to happen. In one exciting scene, the soldiers came into Valor's house and almost found her. I really like this book and would suggest it to you.

Rating:  Summary: Mountain Valor Review: Mountain Valor is a book about a girl named Valor that wants to go to the Civil War. Her father and her brothers went and left her with her mother, maids, and servants. The South is losing, and they need Valor's help. Savannah is one of Valor's maids, and takes care of Valor because her mother is stressed about her husband and sons being away in the war. Savannah is always telling Valor to stop playing with her friends and behaves like a young lady. The main character in the story is a young playful girl named Valor. She loves adventure and although everyone is always telling her to be a young lady, she ignores them and keeps doing what she's doing. She is very curious. She can be a pest sometimes but she is still a good person. Valor is competitive especially when a boy tells her she can't do something because she's girl. The problem for Valor is when a red bearded solider, known as Kirk, threatens that her family will not be safe. Valor becomes very upset and tired of the war.

You will bite your fingernails saying in your mind if everything is going to be okay. Mountain Valor is a book about a girl named Valor that wants to go to the Civil War.

Rating:  Summary: This is the most suspensful book ever made by Gloria Houston Review: Valor, a courageous and willing young girl, whose Father and Brother went to war and left Valor and her Mother at home tending the household out in the country, learns to become stronger and wiser in this book "Mountain Valor". While Valor's Father and Brother are away at war Valor is alone at home with her Mother. They go through many problems but somehow seem to realize that if they work together and always love each other they can complete any task! This book has received 4 and a half stars. The main conflict in this book is that Valor and her mother while at home must survive the wait until the ending of the war. Even though this book received 4 and ½ stars I think that it surely should have received 5! This book is recommended for ages nine to thirteen due to it's voilence and "mountain slang". I liked this book because it kept me wanting to read on and on! This book is filled with fun, danger, mystery, and even a little history! I certainly feel that this is one of the best books I have ever read
