Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare

1984 Newbery Honor book

It is about a boy named Matt whose dad leaves him alone and gets the rest of his family. Then he gets stung by bees and meets 2 Indians. Matt teaches one of the Indians how to read. Then they go to feast with bear stew. When the parents come back, his new baby sister only lived 5 days.

2 stars = It was very good.
