Secret of the Andes by Ann Nolan Clark

3.0

---

This is a really sweet, if dated book about a llama shepherd in the Andes. It beat out Charlotte’s Web for the Newbery Medal and gets a lot of hate for that reason, but it’s a simple, timeless tale. Doesn’t deserve it. I also cannot recall ever reading another children’s book about the Andes so props for that.
