Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing.I enjoyed the book. I didn't know about the history of Kansas at all. The way it was written was good and easy to follow for the age group. The clips at the beginning of the chapters is a nice interesting touch.

I could picture so much of the story in my head; well written.
