Completely Captivating Book

From the first page to the last, I was enthralled in this book! I remember reading the prequel "The Indian in the Cupboard" and thinking that it was a nice enough story, but it didn't leave a big impression on me. On the other hand, reading "The Return of the Indian" took Omri's amazing story to a completely different level. There's so much adventure and excitement packed into this one book. I almost couldn't stand the suspense in certain parts! It's the Perfect read for anyone who likes a bit of thrilling action!

They came back again!!!

The Return of the Indian is the second book to the sequel of The Indian in the Cupboard & at the end of the book in The Indian in the Cupboard the toys were not real anymore & Boone the cowboy & Little Bear went back home & in the second book, Omri couldn't believe he would bring them back again.This book is alright & I enjoy it alot!A year after Omri first meets his Indian friend, he decides to visit him again, only to find that Little Bear is close to death and in need of help.I like the chapter called "Chapter 10. Boone's Brainwave" because it just makes me happy because of Boone the cowboy.This is one heck of a sequel & that book The Return of the Indian reminds me of anything like Oliver Twist & Black Beauty or Son of Black Beauty.This is just a good book & I loved it?

I don't think it was as good as Indian in the Cupboard

I liked it when Omri went to Little Bear's world. Omri was the tepee and got set on fire. He went back to his world and his hair was burned off.

This was the best book I ever read

I give this book an award!!! It was really funny whan a lady says "how" to an indian girl named bright stars. First you should read the indian in the cupboard. It is a graet book to. I hope you like all the indian books.

Return Of The Indian is the best of the 4 books!

I really like this story. Very exciting. This is my favorite of the 4 stories. Lynn has done a great job writing these stories.
