Dave at Night
by
by
This book is different from most of the other books by Gail Carson Levine (and I have read most of her work in the last month and a half).
In this book, the main character is a spunky boy instead of a spunky girl. The boy is 11 years old, instead of about 15. There is no magic nor mythical creatures in this book; this one is firmly set in the reality of depression era USA.
Dave of the title is the main character. He is placed in an orphanage by his stepmother when his father dies. Dave is a rascal and decides to sneak outside one night. Of course, adventure ensues.
I sent a copy of this book to my nephew for his 11th birthday. I think that's a pretty good recommendation.
