Read this super book!!!!!

Maggie Among the Seneca by Robin Moore is a great book! This book starts out with Maggie and her friend, Old Jake Logan. They are drained and exausted and have been traveling for four days! They are heading towards Ohio River Country. Maggie is an Irish, sixteen years old red head. Her hair as red as the fire burning that night. She wore a short blouse and dress, and an apron with her knife tucked into the waist band of her apron . My favorite section is when Maggie gets stolen by two Seneca men. Maggie's aunt Frannie and uncle Thomas are the only family she has she hopes her dad is still alive. Maggie is a caring girl and also cares for nature. Maggie's alive when the Indians are. Oh-no! Trapped! Maggie's so scared after a couple of months pass as Maggie is in the Seneca. In the winter of Maggie's second year there she meets Frenchgirl . Frenchgirl was captured by the Seneca warriors too and so was her brother Firefly. Maggie whose new name Redwing was forced to marry Firefly . A few months later after Firefly died Maggie had a baby who she called Owl Hoot . I can't tell you the rest you'll have to read it on your own. I'd recommend this book to a friend because it's an outstanding book with excruciating detail. This is one of the best books I've ever read. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes surprises.

In over all I really found myself glued to this book. I just couldn?t put in down. I believe they explained many events well. So many things happen to Maggie and her strength through all of these hardship borders on the unbelievable. Although there was a few things that stump me. Like Firefly, Frenchgirl's brother and Maggie's husband, is a completely mysterious character. He is described as blond and blue-eyed, but readers are not told if he is Frenchgirl's natural brother--and if he is, why he can't speak English as she can. This is over all a fiv

Maggie one of the Seneca, No Way! - Morgan

Maggie ran from her fiance in sinking Creek, she went with her friend Jake Login, and found herself taken by a Seneca tribe, now you ask will she servive? What will happen to Jake? Will it be a piece of cake? of course there is another book but just to be sure take a look. I love this book it's fun to read, yes I think it's neat in deed!

A masterfully spun tale

I read this book for the first time after the author gave an assembly at our school. He kindly donated a copy of this work to our library. It's the second book in a trilogy, the first being The Bread Sister from Sinking Creek, also a wonderful book.Maggie Among Seneca tells the tale of Maggie who is desprately tring to find her way to her aunt after the last members of her immeadite family sicken and die. On her journey to locate her, Maggie and her party are captured by a band of Indians and taken to their camp. She is able to befriend a girl who had been taken captive by the same tribe several years before, and who kindly explains everything that goes on for the bewildered Maggie. When she learns to fit in, she meets with both love and heartache, but ultimately still dreams of finding her family.Robin Moore tells the story very well, in a manner which had me wishing that I had not read it, so I could read it all over again for the first time. Many of my freinds who I coaxed to read this book have the very same opinon, and we are all looking forward to the third book in the trilogy.
