The governor of the then dominant state of Virginia during the American Revolution, his was a strong voice for the rebellion against King George and then against the constitution until the Bill of Rights was added.
This book, a member of the Weekly Reader series for children, sums up his life. Like many ... Read More: |

| This book was a huge hit with my entire family, adults and children. My girls repeat the jokes to their friends. It reminds us of the stories of Chelm. The art is wonderful too. |

| I like this book, it's very interesting. I don't usually like to read but I enjoyed this book because it was interesting. It kept you guessing at what was going to happen next, and I liked the way some of the words were spelled; it showed how they pronounced the words. If you like suspense, then I would recommend this book. |

| I originally started this book for a book report in highschool, but I quickly found that it wasn't as dull as I thought it was going to be. This turned out to be my first lesson in, you can't always judge a book in the first 20 pages. Altohugh the novel started out a bit slow, and occasionaly got lost in over whelming discription I found that I couldn't put it down. I wanted to see how Susan's adventures ended. I fell in love with her character as she was strong, and smart, and someone who never gave up without ... Read More: |

| This book is an insult to teenagers everywhere. For one thing, the sentence structure is poor, using too many commas, just so the sentences can be stretched out, longer and longer, melting the brain of whoever reads them, to the point of sending the reader, screaming, yelling, from the room. For another thing, it doesn't draw to a satisfying close. I was waiting for Theodore Taylor to say WHY the guy kills Alvin, but he never does. The story is almost too predictable, making it blatantly obvious who is the murderer early on. ... Read More: |
