She loved it, because it's a story of a self-reliant kid, going on an adventure. Was he scared? Sure. But he faced his fears, & carried on with what he had to do. It taught her that you're more capable than you realize, face your fears and carry on. I think most kids today in the 10-12 year old age range would be able to handle this book.(less)
