The strange thing is I just found out this is a classic. What happened was that I brought the book to school and one of the teachers remarked, "Oh' you're reading that book, I read it when I was a little kid!" Well, I wasn't that surprised because a lot of the books on the list are classics but still.....
Anyway I just got a little side tracked. This book is pretty interesting and I really like that Caddie (the girl this whole book is about) is friends with the natives that live near her home in Menomonie, Wisconsin. They're actually called savages but I like to call them natives. Her mom is afraid of the Indians. Whenever Indian John (one of Caddie's friends) visits Caddie, her mom always gets scared and gives him whatever food she has available because she thinks he will kill her family.
Oh which reminds me, I absolutely positively have to tell you one of the things Caddie's mom says." I don't know how you are friends with these savages but if they eat like Indian John does I am positive we will be eaten out of the house." It might not be the exact quote but what she says in the book is something along those lines.
If you are wondering about Caddie's personality she is a tom boy and she likes to fix clocks!
