My seven-year old thought it was wonderful and adventurous.
This is a great book for any child. It is easy to read and offers many life lessons in an easy to understand style for children of many ages. It is great for both boys and girls. Any child would love this book.
Charolette didnt act like a girl. She climbed trees, fought the boys and worked in a stable- for fun. People didnt think it was proper for her to live this way but she didnt care. She became a top notch rider and even became the 1st woman to vote. Funny, and enlightening as well.
Charlotte became a top-notch horse rider, a legendary stagecoach driver and the first woman ever to vote. And she did these things when they were all outlawed for women. How? With a plan so clever and so secret--almost no one figured it out.
This book is an AWESOME and WONDERFUL book! It even has a bluebonnet award!
Great story about a girl who refuses to fit into the traditional female role of the time and finds the place she was meant to be.
