Title: Children's Book, But Fun Just the Same
Review: I read this book before assighning it to my children. It was definitely a fun read, and leaves you hanging so that you HAVE to read the sequel.Yes, it does not set up blacks in a very good light, but one must consider the time it was written. In any regard, many of the whites were portrayed in unseemly manners as well (cutthroat, evil, stupid, cowards, etc.). As an adult, I would believe that people are smart enough to weed out the literary license taken by this piece of fiction; and discuss the book with their children as to it's story, characters, and intent.I hope you enjoy the story as much as I did.
