I admit it: I am reviewing these books years after reading them. However, do not even suggest that I'm no longer qualified, that too many years have passed to remember. My battered and faded copies of these books testify to how many times I read them growing up and plots and entire passages are seared in my memory forever.
Snowball always ran away, Mandie always got in trouble, Uncle Ned always rescued her, and Joe and Tommy bristled at each other. I myself prefered Joe, but Tommy's cosmopolitan...more

So, this story revolved around a bushel of gold found in a cave. For the most part, the story read pretty quick and I didn't find any full spots. I just didn't understand Tsa'ni. He hated Mandie the entire book but on the last page, he suddenly tells her he loves her. Totally bizarre!
Maybe it's just the fact that I'm not an eleven-year-old girl, but I can't say I really enjoyed this Mandie book. It also may be that since I -didn't- grow up reading this particular Mandie book, there's no sentimental factor to add into my general impression. Sorry, Mandie.
These are great books for children, they are clean, and entertaining. They are a bit childish for adults, but not so much as to be corny or anything. They are a comparable reading experience to Little House on the Prairie.
Mandie and her Cherokee kin are on their way to search for lost gold.
It's neat because i'm also party cherokee.

I love this book! It is my favorite one so far :)
Good book... But not the best.
Didn't care for this one.
As usual, very well done.
Not the best one
it was a good book
This book was OK...
it was an ok book
I read these when I was growing up. Just a simple read to slow down your mind but great for younger girls!
Ok, I have read like 30 of these books. I am not going to go down the line and click on each one of them. I just want to add that these are very good books for younger people. Each book has a mystery to solve and a lesson is learned in each one. Great for girls....not sure if boys would like them. Can always try though.
The Mandie books are fun Christian mysteries for children, but I still love reading them. Even though she doesn't age very quickly and seems to get far too many breaks from school during the year, she's a lot of fun.
A great series of books for children/young adults. Often recommended for girls, because the main protagonist is female, these books could still be a good read for boys, too.
This was a great book!! If you read this one, you should totally read the whole series!
i thought the book was okay but i cant remember because i read it last year!
I loved it when I was 11. I don't know about it now.
Love it!
