Review: Too short, too many characters
Rating: 3 out of 5

I liked the book, however, there were too many characters for the length of the  book.  Trying to remember who someone is takes away from the enjoyment of reading.  The family did run into some problems getting to the homestead, but they seemed luckier than the situation would been in reality.  These were very engaging people who would have made good friends and neighbors.  Had it  been a longer book, it would have  been better.  The author has a way with a story and I hope there is another book because I want to see what happens to these people.
