As an adult living in a politically correct world, my breath stopped at times reading some of the sexist and racial stereotypes that played out in this story. My 6 year old son, however, really enjoyed the story. There were just enough suspenseful moments to keep the tale moving forward and us reading until the end. I would give it 3.5 stars only because this isn't my first choice for a read aloud recommendation.

what a GREAT book for middle-grade (3rd-5th) readers, especially boys. Read the nexzt two in the series and enjoyed them, but this book, the first, is definitely the best!

A childhood favorite. What is not to love?
Now I am sharing it with my sons who adore it and beg me to keep reading. They listen while playing with their own plastic Indians and cowboys.
