Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kelly B. in Mrs. Siorek's 5th grade class

Steal Away Home is a great book. It's about a ten year old girl who was pealing down wall paper then the wall falls and she finds a skeloton in the tiny room. Then she finds a little black book in the room with the skeloton. She decides to keep the book until June first. If she couldn't find out the mystery by then she would give the book to the scientist (the black book was the house owners diary in 1856). The skelotonwas a african american who was running away from her slave owner. The black book belonged to the lady who let her stay for the week.
