Caddie Woodlawn is a girl who lives in the country with her mom, dad, her sisters, and people who come to visit them a lot like Annabelle. Then she met an Indian named Indian John. They were working on a beach bark canoe. They they started to get hungry and left the Indians. On the way home, Tom said that these walnuts were ripe and took them home and threw them on the roof of their home.
I thought this book was awesome and I will definitely recommend it to others.
Caddie Woodlawn is about a girl that is a tomboy. Her mother wants her to be like Hetty and Clara. Through-out the story there are a lot of problems but the biggest one was moving to Boston or staying in Wisconsin. Her father may be the next Lord Woodlawn. They decide to stay in Wisconsin. Caddie enjoys being in Wisconsin and they are happy with this choice.
I think it is one of the best books that I have read because I like reading books that are based on a real story.
Caddie, Warren, Tom, Hetty, Minnie, Clara, Baby Joe are the 7 Woodlawn children. The Woodlawn's live in Dunnville. They have a chance to go live in England but they decide to stay. Caddie is a tomboy and likes to play outside with her brothers. Caddie, Warren, and Tom are the kids that like the Indians and visit their village.
I think that this book is pretty good. It would be better if there was more action.
It was a great book with my attention drawn to it. I would like to give this book a second story and I would recommend this to children 9 and up to read.
