Review: Review of Sing Down: Sing down the moon is a book for ages about 11-13. The main character is a girl named Bright morning, and she's a Navajo Indian. She gets kid-napped by the Spaniards. When she gets back, she has this ceremony of becoming a woman. After her tribe has a march, in the march they walked a lot and a lot of people got sick and died. Some people had hope and some people thought it was going to be the end. During the march Bright Morning and Tall Boy got married. It's a historical fiction story, and if you like historical fiction... I suggest you read it. There were parts in the book which I think were not so good and I didn't really like it, but there were parts that were fine and pretty interesting.
