Book Review: A great Book
Summary: 4 Stars

The book I have chosen is called ''Frightful's Mountain''by Jean Craighead George.This is a good animal adventure book.Sam is a young man who lives in the forest and finds a pergegrine falcon. He names the falcon Frightful and raises her to be able to survive by herself. Frightful has 3 aeries,thats the name for baby falcons.The aerie's have great adventures as they grow up.Although she migrates she always comes back to sam and the forest she knows.
My favorite part of the book was when all the kids and people were helping and trying to save Frightful from the working men. The men were making alot of noise and the children dont want Frightful to be frightened and leave the nest or the aeries.
My least favorite part of the book was when the working men still worked on the bridge and didn't care that they were scaring a peregrine falcon.They were even a little mean when the children told them to stop.
My most favorite character in the book is Frightful.She seems to be a magnificent bird and has great adventures.
I really enjoyed reading about Frightful's falcon friend,chup.She helps him raise his 3 baby peregrine's.I also liked when Frightful ended up in a reserve for birds.I liked how many people would care about falcons and the many other birds.
This book was different from other adventure books because it really taught you how a peregrine falcon lives.By reading this book it makes you feel that if you looked up in a tree,Frightful would be sitting there.
If you enjoy animal books,learning how animals live and adventure books then this book is for you.I really liked it.
After reading this book I had some questions.why would Frightful build her nest on a bridge? Why would Frightfuls daughter attack her?
Read this book because you won't want to put it down.It's a wonderful book!

Book Review: Frightful's Mountain
Summary: 4 Stars

I chose to read this book because I heard it was a good book and my friends recommended it. I also chose this book because I had read the other books of these series:My Side of the Mountain, and On the Far Side of the Mountain. I decided to buy this book from the Scholastic book company, where my friend had bought his. Frightful's Mountain is the third book in this series. Many people said jean Craighead George was a good author, too.
The main characters in the book are Frightful and Sam. Frightful had been cut loose from her jesses, and was let go. She decided to live in the wild because Sam would not take her back to his mountain. Finally, she starts to live as normal peregrines would, and was said to be beautiful and graceful. Sam is a wilderness-loving teen who decides to run away to the Catskill Mountains. He learns how to survive, and learns a lot about the wilderness.
I liked this book because it talks about birds and nature. I also learned about plants that were edible and not. Some sections the book became boring, but other parts were fun to read. I also enjoyed learning about peregrines. I believe the time I used to read this book was worth it.

Book Review: Frightful's Mountain
Summary: 4 Stars

The main character, in this book is a Peregrine Falcon named Frightful. Frightful is taken from her nest to a tree cottage in dheli, owned by Sam Gribley. Frightful was raised in captivity. When Sam let Frightful go, Frightful faced many problems in the real world! Frightful's goal was to migrate south without getting lost, she accomplished her goal by following a group of Falcons south. One of the problems Frightful overcame was when she flew into two utility wires and fell to the ground with her wing almost burnt!
I like the authors writing style because she puts the story in Frightful's point of view. She is also a wonderful author because she makes the book enjoyable for everybody to read. She makes the story come alive. When the story starts it is a little boring but as the story goes on the energy builds up and she puts hints and clues in the story.

Summary: 4 Stars

" Frightful's Mountain" is a mouthful of adventure. It tells how a falcon tries to survive in the wild. This book is unforgettable. I give great thanks to Jean Craighead George; she did a wonderful job. She did so well you would not be able to stop reading. "Frightful's Mountain" gives a message that tell you that everything happens for a reason and that little animal can do a lot of things. At least I think so. I recommend this book to everyone for all ages, and I give this book a well deserved four stars.
