Summary: The Secret Soldier
Comment: The Secret Soldier is a marvellous biography about a valiant woman named Deborah Sampson. She was undoubtedly one of the most courageous and adventurous woman in America. This book is a fabulous story of a youthful woman who was born impoverished, and was ent from house to house until she came of ge to be on her own. Determined to discover adventure, she disguises herself as a soldier and fights in the Revolutionary War. She wanted adventure and she certainly got it.
I highly recommend this book to any variety of children. It is a quick read but at the same time it's very intriguing. I relished this book because it is a true story about a real girl who really lived. It captures your attention and doesn't let it go until the very end!

Summary: A second grader says:buy it!!
Comment: I read this in school. ex: deborah sampson wanted to be a soldier in the Revolutionary Army, so she dressed as a boy and signed up as Robert Shirtliff, called "Bobby". Some people called her "blooming boy" to tease her. She discovered that war was not an adventure but the most horrible thing in the world. After 1 1/2 years, she is put out of the army. I found this book interesting and exciting. In school, I got this book for reading group, but I read it all the way through without the group! I have to write my planet report now, so bye.
