Title: A fine addition to King's fine work.
Review: This is one of the most restrained and tasteful of King's books. This story is great for a few hours reading. It is short and one of King's most together plot lines. It's full of testament to his writing skills and a good break from his over the top works for his constant readers. This is not a brain buster. The simplicity and the perfection in which it plays out is masterful. Kid gets lost- and this is what goes on in her head, how she keeps it all together without letting the dark creepy forrest get the best of her. A few scenes away with the relatives and police... Kid gets into trouble and nobody knows how real the trouble is or if it happened at all. When something bad happens to her you may feel a slight knot in your stomach and when something nice happens to her you feel a little bit relieved yourself. It's all in good fun. A really perfect short read, great Sunday evening material. A great book.
