May Amelia Jackson is the only girl that lives on the Nasal River. Right know May Amelia’s Ma is pregnant she is really hoping that her Ma will have a girl. May Amelia is surrounded by seven brothers. May get in a load of trouble. There is one brother that she really likes and who watches over her and that brother’s name is Wilbert. Wilbert is a very nice and sweet. He takes really good care of her at night. Their Pa thinks that she is getting into those years when she needs a little more help, but the kids think that she capable to live on her own. The kids don’t like her because she is real mean and does not like children at all.
This book was very interesting and I actually liked it. I truly think that a lot of people will love to read this book. I think that they would like to read this book because I some parts of it get really exciting and you will not want to put it down. The genre is a historical fiction. I recommend this book to any age group.
