Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Susan/Mrs.Fleming's Class

When I first read Crispin and the Cross of lead it seemed like a very sad book about a boy who's mother dies and people are trying to murder him. He rins away and gets claimed by a fat man named Bear. Bear seems mean and tough at first but he atcually is okay. He takes care of Crispin and taches him how to take care of himself. When Crispin finds out that his father is the King(now dead) Bear is captured by his Lord who has pursued him. He goes and rescues Bear and Bear fights against the Bailiff. They win and get their freedom.
