Title: A mom's perspective: don't let the series deceive you, this book is morbid
Review: I thought that since this book was a part of the Little House Series it would have been of the same mold as the other books. However, as I read through this book before letting my daughter have it, I was appalled at the quantity of negative content in it. The entire setting is among people who are very much the opposite of the beloved characters in the rest of the books: they are rude, aggressive, and degrading toward children. There are several instances of gratuitous violence, graphic descriptions of the macabre, and even a character made out of a dead girl. The morbid tone throughout the book is disturbing. It is not in keeping with either the description of this book from the editor's reviews or with the nature of the entire series. Read it before you let your child read it!
