LitPick Review
Henry Smith's father always told him that if you build your house far enough away from Trouble, then Trouble will never find you. ...but Trouble did find Henry. It came in and took his brother when it left. Trouble left Henry with nothing, nothing but a dirty black dog to take care of. Henry only has one choice, to leave. He goes to climb Mount Katahdin and attemps to cross the Knife Edge and get to the peak of the mountain. It turns out that the mountain teaches him some things, but does Henry listen to the lesson or ignore it? Will Henry get to the top or fall deeper than he already is?
Opinion:
I thought this was a very good book. It was a good reading level for a sixth grader. I found it iteresting. I really liked how the story starts and how it ends. I would recommend this book to other kids my age.
