It completely lost my interest, and I couldn't finish it. The start of the series was good, but the memory loss and time traveling and dimensional thing wasn't put together well enough. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78359445 to: The Shaktra (Sequel to Alosha) by Christopher Pike

LOVE THESE!
Little Britches (aka, Ralph) is so honorable and good and loyal and hard working, even when he and his sister are coming down with the measles. He loves horses, and his family stays optimistic and cheerful in the midst of hard times (blizards, accidents, being cheated). RM recounts his boyhood with the eyes of an eleven-year-old who knows how to shoulder responsibility. I mean, Little Britches is the main bread-winner for his household most of the time.
It's also so very hilarious, like when he and Grace don't realize their mother is pregnant until she's already given birth. Some people are unforgettable, like Hi, the cowboy whose heart is bigger than the western plains and has great faith in Little Britches.
Rabbits, turkeys, geese, cows, horses...summertime, blizards, school, cattle herds...pie, berries, grain, doughnuts, chocolate.....this is Colorado in 1910 at its best. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77753655 to: Caddie Woodlawn (Paperback) by Carol Ryrie Brink
I just love historical books by real people (Little House, Little Britches, etc.) Caddie Woodlawn is a perfect example of that, and I love her young view on life and the way she likes to play and be ornery...it's great.
So, though it isn't a non-fiction book, it isn't realy a fiction book either...I need another shelf. ]]>
