When the Road Ends

This is a great book. It is very surprising . In the end every thing was all right. I have never in my life read a book like this. I liked ths book more than any other book. It is a wonderful book. It may be a little sad but every thing turns out fine.

WOW! Hi, (...) I am 13 years old. At our school we have to get reading points and I really dont like to read. I went to the library and checked out When the Road Ends because a few of my friends had suggested it. I went home and read the first chapter. I was hooked immediatly! The book is sooo good! It is my all time favorite! The next day we had a school delay and I finished the whole book in 1½ hours. Now I like to read and I always get books by Jean Thesman. She is a GREAT writer!

When the Road Ends is about twelve-year-old Mary Jack, who is a foster child. Then her foster parents send her to live in a cabin with their other two foster children (one of them doesn't talk) and Father Matt's sick sister. This book was excellent!

This is a great story about a 12 year old girl , Mary Jack , and how she copes with trying to live in a cabin by the river with 14 year old rebellious Adam , "Jane" a young girl who doesn't talk , and "Aunt Cecile" a middle aged lady recovering from a head injury in a car accident which left her husband dead. This is a very good story accept I would like it more if Adam and Mary Jack fall in love and end up getting married when they are older and they take "Jane" as their daughter.

This is an incredibly moving story of the power of love. Four misfits find a way to become a family despite overwhelming odds against them. Mary Jack takes on the responsiblities no child should have to face. She is forced to trust Adam, even when she logically knows she shouldn't. And finally Mary Jack lets someone take care of her.
