karrama 's review for:
Wolf Hollow
by Lauren Wolk
This is the story of a girl, the eldest in her family, who has a good heart and is starting to see the world in shades of grey. She wants to protect those around her, but still needs protection herself. The story is true to children her age and she shows gumption while also having the good sense to ask for help when she really needs it. There are good reasons this book was compared to To Kill a Mockingbird; however, the story itself does not fit the powerful model the aforementioned book possessed. Some of the plot points were too pat, too easily resolved for the emotions that flowed through the book. I'm glad to have read it and would recommend it to those who love history.
