Keeper of the Doves

I think this book has a good start but I also think that the dad overeacted when he found out that Amen was a girl!!

The book is very different than any book I have ever read. It is about a girl who has three sisters when she is born and her dad really wants a son. All of the children's names have to start with an A. So her name is Amen. She was the fifth one born after her older sister died after 9 days of living. Her and her sisters are all scared of their neighbor Mr. Tominski, a mysterious man that saved their father from death. Mr. Tominski is the keeper of the doves behind an old church. There are some sad parts. But I would still recommend this book any day.

I loved this book!This book is about Amie and a man named Mr Tominski. He had doves in a nearby chapel. He trained his doves. This story is placed in 1899 in Kentuky. One day Amie meets Mr Tominski in the grave yard. Amie has a camera. Mr Tominski talks in German. He was pointing at himself. Amie said do you want me to take a picture of you? Mr Tominski shook his head. Amie took 2 pictures of Mr Tominski. This book is about differences. I recommend this book to anybody!!!
