Ghost Hawk Review

Ghost Hawk is a book about a indian in the Pokanoket tribe. A boy Little Hawk goes away on his quest of manly hood in the middle of the winter for three months or three moons. he faces many challenges including physical and mental injuries. Overall, this book is very confusing. This book has some deaths, some that would make you tear up. In this book there are many parts when you need to stop and reflect. There a few great quotes sprinkled in this book. It makes you think about many things and how lucky you are to have everything.
