Description: This book was a sad and heartwarming story about a nine year old boy who was abandoned by his mother.

Through family secrets and danger the love of a little boy for his mother gave him the strength, no matter how painful, to not give up on finding her.

In Short: This story was well constructed and told from the perspective of a nine year old boy. This book is full of excitement and interesting characters.

Pros: I liked this book from the beginning and it never disappointed me to the end. The historical time and events along with farm life makes this book very interesting. I felt so many emotions throughout the book. I could feel the pain and desperation of little Jasper and some of the other characters.
