This is a great book! i couldnt put it down. S.K keeps you up wondering whether or not shes going to make it even through the night. i found this exciting and entertaining and even at some points humerous. its by far the best stephen king book ive ever read.

I have always loved Stephen King's work but, "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" was one of his best. I would recomend it to anyone who loves the end of their seat. Before I read this book I thought it was hard for me to survive in high school but, I had another thing coming. This book helps you appriciate your kitchen faucet, and every french fry you have ever digested.

sietze yeah...You want to feel good after reading a book then try this one. Your daily struggle to survive means nothing compared to what she has to go through. And you automatically start to think that if a nine year old girl can do it, then you can solve your problems as well. This story is about a girl, Trisha, who is nine years of age and almost ready to develop herself in a positive way to maturity. She is a tough girl because she can be very hard for herself. She is also a clever girl and she always tries to make the best of whatever situation she is into. These are the things that she needs to survive when she gets lost in the woods while having a trip with her mother and brother. During her separation from the civilized world she is accompanied by her imaginary friend Tom Gordon, a picher for the Red Sox and her personal hero. She listens to game reports of him on her walkman, and sometimes she actually sees him in the woods. It helps her to get along as good as possible and so she might be able to find her way out. But there is another spirit in the woods and it is coming closer.... This is a very down to earth Stephen King book because it is not full of scary monsters. It is more about faith and subconsciousness and the triggered development of a young girl, without the facilities of the civilized world. There is also the question wether there is a God or not and S.K. lets you decide for yourself if you believe and what you believe in. It is not a heavy dramatic kind of book though. It has some humoristic parts in it(He uses a very friendly and positive kind of humor). But most important: It is a very exiting book because when you are reading this story you actually start to feel like a little kid alone in the woods, not knowing what is out there. I cant imagine anything more scary than that...

Chris at Winnetonka High School The Girl who loved Tom Gorden is an inspiring book that makes you happy for what you have! Trisha McFarland is a young girl who gets lost in the woods. No matter how many times she wants to give up, she thinks of number 36 Tom Gordon. Trisha is a big Red Sox fan and her hero is Tom Gordon. I think it has a little uncalled for cussing but is still a good book. I think is is good for ages 13 and up!
A bold, mesmerizing novel about the woman known as "Typhoid Mary," the first known healthy carrier of typhoid fever in the burgeoning metropolis of early twentieth century New York.
