Welcome back to All About Books, the third most popular blog on the web! Okay, I'm kidding about the popularity thing. BUT, if we work hard enough, we can make that happen someday!
Anyway, today I will be reviewing Sharon Creech's Walk Two Moons. It's about a girl named Salamanca Tree Hiddle (but everyone calls her Sal) She is the narrator of this story. She is on a trip from Eucilid, Ohio to Lewiston, Idaho with her grandparents. Along the way, she tells the story of her friend, Phoebe. The story of mysterious messages, a potential lunatic, and her mother's disappearance.
Inside Phoebe's story, Sal finds her own. Her mother left, promising to be back by when the tulips bloomed. Only, she isn't back. Sal wants to find her and bring her back home by her birthday, even though it seems impossible.
During the trip, Sal's grandparents stop at many places that her mother visited. They have all sorts of adventures, including an encounter with a certain water moccasin (you know what a water moccasin is, right? A deadly snake?).
Such an interesting story ends in tragedy for Sal. I can't tell you exactly what happens or I'll spoil the book. Just so you know, this is a really good book, but it isn't one of my favorites.I didn't write much because there isn't much to say. It sort of (to me at least) just lulls and ends in sadness. Someone else might enjoy it, though. I'll see you soon!.
