This was sad good book. It told me about a girl whose parents died and she grew up alone. She had to pretend that she was a boy because she couldn't find work because she was a girl.

This book was very interesting and beautiful. I liked reading it. I learned that sometimes girls had to dress like a boy to be able to get a job.

I liked this book and it's really great -that's why I try to encourage my friends to read this book. It touched my heart when Hayward had to leave. I'll give it 100,000 stars.

It's about a girl named Charlett who runs away from a foster home and her parents die in a wagon crash.
