Tomorrow+the+River+(AA)

I chose to read __Tomorrow the River__ for my outside reading book. Megan Barnett’s journey throughout this book takes place on a farm in Nebraska and on a river boat called the Oh My on the Mississippi. The main characters in this book are Megan Barnett, Horace, Hannah Bradshaw, Isaac Bradshaw, and John-Jacob Bradshaw. Megan is going to help her sister (Hannah) and her sister’s family on their riverboat this summer. Megan gets on the train with her mother’s rules and rides the train to meet up with her sister’s family’s river boat. On the train ride there she meets Horace who is on his way to help make doors at his Uncle’s door factory but Horace wants to go into engineering. All along the Mississippi Megan runs into different situations and meets new people. The major conflicts in this book are Megan vs. Megan’s mother because Megan had to convince her mother that 14 isn’t to young to travel alone for a girl and Megan vs. money because she has to earn her railway ticket home somehow because she doesn’t have enough money. I thought that Tomorrow the River was a very good book and I would recommend this book to other girls (I don’t think boys would like it). I would recommend this book because it is a good realistic fiction book so you can get a feel for what was going on in that time era. Another reason I would recommend this book is because it takes place on the Mississippi River around where we are so we can connect to the different places in the book. Also I would recommend this book because the main character is a girl around our age so we can relate to the character. Those are a few reasons why I would recommend this book to other girls.
