This was an okay book, not one of my favorites. From the back-cover blurb I was expecting something to *happen* after Tawil was stolen in the raid, but it went right from that to two or three years later. I thought maybe Yatimah would somehow get Tawil back, but that did not happen. Overall the book was a little slow, but I really liked learning about the Bedouin people's way of life. I like that Yatimah eventually proved herself a good war horse just like her mom. ( )

i liked this book. the start of it was sad but then
it got better and it was a good book. ( )
