Splendid

This is a marvellous book, an adventure involving a "white" boy and an "indian" girl, told first from his point of view and then again from hers. The contrast is extraordinary and the compassion and drama of the story are remarkable. First rate. It's a crying shame this book is out of print and I hope someone wakes up and reprints it soon.
