Parent/Librarian View: Awesome Series for Elementary School Animal Lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Do you have a boy who likes horses? This is THE book you've been looking for. My fourth-grade son LOVED it. He read it in one sitting (almost unheard of for fiction) and just inhaled the vocabulary, setting, etc. All the Wild At Heart books are well-written, with realistic situations and credible (compelling) character arcs. The lead characters always learn something important about themselves and about human-animal interactions. Laurie Halse Anderson writes accurately about animals (horses here, cats and dogs in other books -- all of which I've owned for extended periods of time). She is both deeply sympathetic to and realistic about animals -- and about kids. And don't be put off by the American Girl imprint -- this is NOT a book just for girls ... just a far-sighted acquisition by AG.

TRICKSTER

Trickster, by Laurie Halse Anderson, is one of the best books that I have ever read. It's about a boy named David whose parents get a divorce. He has to go and live with his mom. To help David take his mind off of things, she takes him to the farm where he used to ride horses. One day, David rides away from his group. David gets a chance to work at a vet clinic and David and the rest of the kids and Dr. Mac are going on a trip to the same farm. Find out what happens next in Trickster. I like the book because the book is interesting, funny, exciting and sometimes you can't even put the book down. It's one of my favorites in the whole world. I think that the author (Laurie Halse Anderson) could have put a little more past times in the book, maybe a little more exclamatory events too. The message to this book is to help others when they are in trouble. Also, be responsible and don't always play around.

Trickster's Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The Wild At Heart book Trickster is a great book. I finished the book in two days , i just couldn't put it down. This book kept me on the edge of my seat. I like horses, but by reading this book i love them even more. This book has one of the best endings i have ever read. All of the Wild At Heart books are very good, but Trickster is the best.
