Walk Two Moons


I have finished reading Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech. I love this book. It is all about a thirteen year old girl named Salamanca, known as Sal, who is traveling with her grandparents from Ohio to Idaho. Sal is going to Idaho to look for her mother, who left one day to go to Idaho and never returned. Sal wants to get to Idaho in less then a week because she wants to find her mom in time for her mother's birthday and bring her back. Sal's dad tried to talk Sal out of going to find her mom because he said it would be fishing in the air. But regardless, Sal knows that this journey is her only chance in getting her family back together. During the drive to Idaho, Sal tells her grandparents a story about a girl named Phoebe, who received weird messages, met a "potential lunatic", and who's mom disappeared. Below Pheobes story is Sal's story about her mom. In the end, Sal finds out that her mom had died and that's why she hadn't returned back home. Overall, this book was really good. I loved it.
