Customer Reviews

What a great story! - Real Texas!

The characters experienced the full range of emotions. I felt like I was right along with them for the adventures. Such strong characters, determination. Very inspiring!

I couldn't put it down. Glynda

I truly enjoyed every word of this book. I was hooked after the first page and wasn't willing to stop reading! Shyanne has such strength and courage. Watching her grow and deal with her problems touched me.

I thought the book had a lot of drama and humor.

I liked the part in the schoolhouse when Josh Paul,Shiloh,and Shenandoah were trapped with Miss Gibson in the schoolhouse, because that part has a lot of tragedy to it and a way to survive if you're ever stuck in a schoolhouse when there is a blizzard. The rest of the book is just great so I think Ms.Freeman should get something special.
