Walk Two Moons
I think that this book was good but was boring at some parts and confusing at some parts but the overall story was a great one.

Walk Two Moons.
I love this book because it has a lot of good messages such as being grateful for what you have in the sayings she uses in the book. I think some of the charactors she has a realistic because anyone could be a worrier like Pheobe or outgowing like Sam. So are the problems like moving when you already have a perfect home right where you are. Anyway this is a really good book and anyone should read it.
everyones opinion (10/16/05)

yes and no
I read some of the reviews of people but you shouldn't just read the first line an decide its a bad book because you have to get into it and read the whole story to decide whether you liked it or not. I know everyone has their own opinion about things and mine is that i dont think its a bad book but i dont think it the best written either but it is a page-turner!

Walk Two Moons
This is the greatest book ever. It made me laugh and cry. Everyone, I think, should read this awesome book.

Walk Two Moons
I think this book is great. It gives me a chance to learn about how a girl like Salamanca, lives her life without her mother, and how she deals with it. I can't really relate to her, but it's fun to read about her journey while traveling with her grams and gramps. It's a great book that I think everyone can enjoy.

This book book was like the best book I ever read in my life! I think that it was really sad that when Saimanca went to go see her mom and it ended up at the grave yard.I think that it was scary when they ceeped on getting note from what they thought was the Lunitic
but it ended up being the old lady that lived next to Phebe. Onr thing that got on my nerves is that Phebe was being rude about the plates not maching and the food! She worryed to much about the carbs! One thing that was like wow is how Phebes mom kissine the Lunitic and all that and how it ended up being Phebes step brother!Another thing that scared me was that when Phebe and Salimanca snuk in to the old ladys house and tht the old lady that was blind new that it was Salimanca and that some one was with her! Last is that her teacher was her write two notebooks about her and that Salimanca did not know what to write.I HOPE THAT EVERT BODY LOVED THIS BOOK BECAUSE I VERY SUE THAT I DID!I HOPE THAT SHARON CREECH WRITE ALOT MORE BOOK THAT ALL THE PEOPLE LEARN FROM BECAUSE I KNOW I DO! Dont Judge A Man Untill You Walked Two Moons In His Moccisons! amd that a fact! THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE BOOK! NOW I NOW THAT IM GOING TO BY THIS BOOK!!!

This wonderful book teaches many lessons. First, I think that the lesson most important that this book told me was that you should walk in someone else's shoes or mocassins BEFORE you judge them. Just like the saying: Never judge a book by its cover Sharon Creech did an amazing job telling this tale about Phoebe Winterbottom and Salamanca Tree Hiddle. This story really is touching and well written. I could never put down this book! Each time I picked it up, I couldn't get my eyes off it! I finished this book in 2 days!! I would really wish that Salamanca had a better ending like how Phoebe did. Salamanca's Grandma was so alive and excited,so I feel bad that she died. I recommend this boom to anyone that enjoys touching and meaningful stories. There are 5 words to describe Walk Two Moons: INCREDIBLE, AMAZING, HEARTREACHING, WONDERFUL, and MARVELOUS.

I thought the book was great. It really felt like Salamanca, even though she was a fictional character, was communicating to me through the book. Sharon Creech uses very emotive techniques in the book and shows real empathy. It feels like the book has been written by a 13 year old girl and not just someone trying to write through the eyes of someone else. I really felt warmth for all the characters. Pheobes character was brilliant. She had a wonderfully vivid imagination which classically got ahead of her. Sharon really sells the story to you. She gives it her best. The characters she created are brilliant and the way she shows their thoughts and feelings really gives the story life. I am fourteen but first read the book when i was thirteen and I think it is suitable for any girls around that age group as it is something that you can relate to. I would recommend it to all female teens aged 12-14 as it provides a good understanding and is easier to empathise with.
