Book Reviews of The Secret of the Indian
Book Review: The secret of the indian{bookreview}
Summary: 5 Stars
Did you ever read a book with little action figures brought to life by a magic cupboard? Well if you like books with a lot of action, excitement and danger, a book called The Secret of the Indian is a good book for you. The main idea of this book review is to recommend this book under my opinion. This review is mainly about the end of a book called The Return Of The Indian and the book after that one in the series. It is called The Secret of the Indian. In this story, two main characters, Omri and Patrick, are faced with gangsters who are trying to rob Omri's house. Omri and Patrick chase off the skinheads, but have another problem, how they are going to explain to Omri's burn. A few weeks later, Patrick is trying to tell himself that every thing that happened with the magic cupboard was not real. So after Omri convinces Patrick that ever happened with the magic cupboard was real, both boys steal one of Patrick's cousin's dolls to heal Omri's plastic Indian, Little Bear. After they bring the doll to life and find out the doll's name is Matron, Matron heals Little Bear. Later, Patrick goes back to the time of his toy cowboy, Boone. When he comes back he brings some one back, Ruby Lou. The rest you have to find out yourself by reading the book. In my opinion, the last book in the series, The Secret Of The Indian, is a great book.
I totally recommend this book to someone between the ages of 8 and11. It is an excellent book for someone my age. It has great details, described by the author, Lynne Reid Banks, whose books I now love. The series of books are the kind of books where you could lose in until you finish reading the book. I enjoyed reading these books and I hope you do to.

We checked out The Secret of the Indian on tape from our library and listened to it on a trip. All of us from the adults to the kids (14,8,6) were interested and excited about what would happen next. We have listened to each of the books and are now looking forward to the 5th story.Book Review: Sequel to "The Indian ib the Cupboard"
Summary: 4 Stars
In the 19th century Peter Pan: The Original Story (Peter Pan) was a very important children's book just as Alice in Wonderland.
In these cases a world of fantasy and magic replaces that of science
and realism.
These stories delight the spirit of the young with their honesty and depth.
This sequel is up to the original in content
and keeps the reader's interest and sympathy. Here we have time travel,( Red) Indians,
toy soldiers, nurses , doctors and Texas Cowboys ( and a saloon girl)
interacting violently with the skin heads and school authorities.
And the "secret" like that of Peter Pan remains safe with those young at heart...
Book Review: My Review
Summary: 4 Stars
The Secret of the Indian is a great book to read. But if you have not read the first two books (The Indian in the Cuboard and The Return of the Indian) you should not read this book because you need to know how it all begins. This is a great book because it has good detail and a great author's message. The author's message is that humans are people and you should not treat them like a toy (even if they're 3 in. tall). Also, it has exciting parts in it like when you figure out that Mr. Johnson knows. and that is why it is a good book.Book Review: School Assignment

I recommend this book to other readers between the ages of 8 to 13 year-old kids because the book talks about fun things like time travel and also is easy to read. Some of the words in the book are big, though.
