story is pretty good The language is in correlation to the time period which is nice Not to mention the reality of people in the times connection to god One problem with the story is that there is a lot of slow points where not much is happening I know all stories have these but it will get boring after a while A rather odd book Intriguing but definitely not a favorite Pretty funny Written for kids but I don't think most of them would get the subtle humor This Twain like novel featuresyear old Henry as the wry narrator who tells of his comic adventures inMissouri When a lie to his older brother Charles about their cousin being seen living with an Indian tribes leads them on an eventful search the journey paints a picture of frontier

prejudices with seriocomic overtones A National Book Award Finalist I came across this book when i was filling in on the Children's Reference Desk and loved it It's a great story of what happens when you lie It's told through Henry who is fourteen and living in Missouri inthrough telling his lie he gets caught up in something that takes himmiles away from home The story is very compelling and the writing is wonderful Read this when I was probably aroundorduring my summer of endless readingMy first reaction was shock and surpriseIt was nothing close to what I even expected Looking back to my youngster thoughts I believe that the storyline is pretty interesting and uniue in its writing considering the adventures that the protagonist goes into from telling a simple lie However I think the main reason I despised this book for so long as a kid was because of an inappropriate scene if I recall correctly of the protagonist seeing this Native American girl without clothes Otherwise aside from little details the storyline is amusing enough Bruce Clements is a children's author particularly admired for his historical fiction He lives in Windham Connecticut.
