Ontsnapt

by Monica Hughes

Twee verhalen die in eerste instantie parrellel aan elkaar lopen vormen daarna samen één verhaal. Enerzijds is er een Indiaan, Isaac Manyfeathers, die wegens een akkefietje in de gevangenis is beland en daaruit vervolgens ontsnapt. Anderzijds is er Lenora Rydz, 'verblijd' met de komst van een intelligente, niet uit het veld te slane, stiefvader en zijn twee slimme zonen.

When my grade 6 teacher announced that we were going to read Log Jam, I asked him why we were reading about constipation.

[Travis Herring · Rating 3 out of 5]

An entertaining, quick enough read. Cliche characters throughout and an almost insulting depiction of indigenous culture and beliefs. Especially as described during the climax. Read it because of the title, which is the best part.
