Hey guys! Summer vacation starts next Wednesday (my school added 5 days -_- ), so I hope I can post more book reviews for you all to enjoy. Ok, so the book review that I have for you today is called “Kitty Hawk and the Curse of the Yukon Gold”. This book was written by Iian Reading. I hope you enjoy it! 🙂
Kitty Hawk is the tale of an adventurous teenage girl who lives in a small village in Canada. Kitty has always loved to fly planes and one day decides to research humpback whales in Alaska. However Kitty is a curious and sometimes stubborn girl. So one day as she is flying over the water looking for whales her curiosity get the best of her. She notices a tiny little boat submerged in water and realizes that this boat could be the one with stolen gold — tales which she had heard from friends.
What follows next is nothing like what Kitty Hawk could have ever imagined before. Terrible bandits, creepy curses and ship wrecks all entangle to become part of her new adventure.
My review:
Honestly, I found the beginning of the story a bit boring. It could have been a shorter by couple of pages. But, as I continued reading I started enjoying the book more. I could not wait to turn to the next page to see where the character would end up. The feeling of suspense kept me going on. Kitty Hawk is a wonderful, brave character and a terrific role model for young girls like me. Although this book is for all ages, I think 10 -13 year old would enjoy it more. Even my mom enjoyed reading this book. If I had to rate this book I would give it a rating of 4 stars.

Thank you so much so this great review! I love how you posted a picture of the book with it as well. The colours on the cover are so intense! Thank you for your appreciation of the Kitty Hawk character. I have to agree that she is most definitely brave. I admire that about her, actually. Thank you again!
Thank you Mr. Reading. I am glad you liked the review.
This looks like a great book! Thanks for the review!
When I was young, these were my favorite kind of books to read. This brings back a lot of memories. I love the whole concept of independent women,nature and adventure. I probably would enjoy reading it right now too, just like your mom. Thanks for the review!
Sounds like an interesting book! I’d be curious to read it.
Great review and the book sounds like a good one will add to my list.
This looks like a book my daughter would enjoy.
I like root beer, too! LOL. You did a great job reviewing this book!!
I cant wait until my 7 year old can read chapter books like these. I want her to be able to get lost in a book.
Sounds like a good read for girls. I don’t see my boys reading this, they would tell me it’s for girls. I do so wish that they wouldn’t think like that. 🙂
