Book Reviews of The Light in the Forest
Book Review: Interesting short, but chalanging book.
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was an exelent choice for the eith grade pentathalon. Although it is short, the author was sure to include lots of interesting facts to hold your attention. The author cleaverly added Indain names from the Delaware (Lenni Lanape) language to make the reading leavel higher. Allthough not all of the words are explained, most of the words you can infer their meanings. It is an interesting book about the cultural clashes beetween the setlers of the US and the Indains that already inhabit the land. The book has minimal political veiws expressed with only ocational (only mentioned, not explained) violence. The book has a very good arangment of sapy to serious expereances that alot of people can realate to. This is a good book for adolecence, and at only 120 pages an quick read for a book report.Book Review: After interesting start, there is an awful end

I've read this book several times since I was in grade school (over 30 years ago) and I find it an inspiring and moving book each time I read it. This book also introduced me to many other of Conrad Richter's fine short novels.Book Review: A wonderous and inspirational novel.

You have to read this book, ok it may be boring just a little bit but I really enjoyed it. I always love reading novels like these. This book inparticular inspired me to start writing novels about America and how it was in the past. Well good luck, you will like the book at the end trust me.
