Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech


Book Recommended by Anup C.

Mountain Park Branch

When was the last time you sat down with someone and was ready to hear the story of a lifetime? Sal and her grandparents are on a trip to different places. During the incessant car ride, Sal begins a story about Phoebe Winterbottom, as she continues to search for her missing and disappearing mother and a lunatic. The grandparents’ reaction to her story is hysterical. Granny always has something to say and constantly misconstrues Phoebe for Peeby. The book reminds you of oral traditions, as they use it in Sal’s story. Humor is scattered all across the pages, along with a few unexpected twists and a surprise ending. After reading this book I wanted to say, “Huzza! Huzza!” Read the book to find out what that means!
