Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare

1984 Newbery Honor

It is about a boy who is 12 years old and his name is Matt. They lived in Maine and his father had to go to Vusha to get the rest of the family so Matt is all alone for 6 to 8 weeks until Native Americans save him. Now Matt is learning to hunt from one of them. Now Matt teaches him to read. Then after many weeks, his family comes back with the baby.

I thought it was ok but not the best book ever, but it was good.

3 stars = It was a good book.
