This is a rather intense story based on a true story about two young girls who were taken captive by Native Americans. It mostly follows Barbara, the older girl and how she stands strong in her Christian faith despite her circumstances. Some people really would not appreciate this book , but even if you are not a Christian I think a person can think about how awful it would be to be taken from ones family at such a young age....I think most persons would want to hold fast to anything that held them close to their family. I therefore recommend this book to everyone no matter their faith. I am a Christian but I have lots of friends who are not, and one in particular who is very sensitive on how Native Americans are portrayed , I still would recommend this book to him as the Native Americans are human, they are not goofballs, they have emotion. This is an honest story.
