Customer Reviews

Ready for Book Two

We read book 1 of The Klondike Kid Trilogy aloud in our cabin while on an Alaskan cruise with our grandkids [7,8 yrs]. All four of us got into the story, and want the sequels!

My kids love this series

There are so few historical fiction series for young readers that also have good stories. This is one. Both my boys are reluctant readers, and they really enjoyed another series by Hopkinson, Prairie Skies. When we found SAILING FOR GOLD in her new Klondike Kid trilogy, they were so excited. Well, this one is as good as the last. Recommended!
