About This Book
I read this book in grade school after purchasing it through the Scholastic Book Club. I've reread it multiple times and I still have the book and still enjoy it 35-40 years later. It's one of those stories you can't put down because you can't wait to see how it turns out and you find yourself wanting to help the characters along if only you could.
