Great Memorable Book
I remember reading this book as a kid, and I still have the well used book to read to my daughter. I real classic.

Swift Arrow
I remember this book from childhood, when it was read to us in class(3rd or 4th grade), I purchased it and read it as an adult, and it's still a GREAT story.

favorite
This book has been an all time favorite of mine. I've read it over and over since I was a child and now my children (ages 5-14) still enjoy it as a family read aloud. Josephine Edwards was a fabulous story teller and did wonderful "weeks of prayer" for my elementary school when I was a child. Thanks to her family for the effort they put into getting this story back into print for another generation!

A great family read!
Fun for the whole family. Read this a chapter at a time at bedtime. My children couldn't wait for the next chapter each evening! Thank you for a wonderful family story!

The same, and not the same.
I remember this book from my childhood 40-some years ago.Though the text is the same, it's not the original publisher.The book is put together more cheaply in this edition; past the cover, it just has a cheesy look to it.I realize that I'm making a subjective statement, and a relative one as well, but overall the book just doesn't have the quality to it that I hoped it would have.Thank goodness the story is still as good as it always was! ...
