I like it so far! Bright morning and her friend at grazing there sheep on the mesa.A storm happens and bright morning leaves her sheep! Her mom makes her get them her mom gave her the cold shoulder. Her mom didn't let her graze the sheep again that summer. The next spring came Bright morning was allowed to graze the sheep! When Bright morning and running bird are on the mesa they see there swarm enimes (one of them) The long knives! They were coming to capture them so they can become slaves! They took the girls to a town and left them with there new people. Luckily they meet a girl and she helps them escape! On the way back to there indian home they run into bright mornings crush.He and his friend help them get home. They relized they were being followed. Tall boy her crush kills the leader! The other guys ran away they were hiding. So then they got home.There other people enimes tell them to leave there him homes. They had no choice! They left cannon de chelly and camped out in the woods! They burned there homes and ruinened there crops! There enimes now found out they were hiding in the woods. So that is where I am hope that you liked my review!✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

On a beautiful spring morning while grazing their sheep, Bright Morning and her friend Running Bird see two men coming toward them. Right away, Bright Morning knows who the men are: slavers come to the Navaho country to steal girls and sell them to families in town. In minutes, both girls are caught and taken away.
But Bright Morning does not give up trying to escape and eventually finds her way back home. What Bright Morning can’t know, though, is that the entire Navaho way of life is about to change forever.

“Poignantly moving.” —Booklist
“Beautifully written, Sing Down the Moon is a memorable reading experience — for any age.” —Book World

The same author wrote this book called Island of the Blue Dolphins. We read it in the seventh grade and it wasn't awful, JUST NOT ENOUGH GOING ON! I wouldn't mind reading this one however.
It is an ok book. I mean there is some action but its kind a slow. its about navajos and the long walk and bla-bla-bla.
