| "This is an awesome book for young readers between 8 to 12 years of age. It has so many interesting facts and unusual items relating to the Smoky Mountains, that it is sure to hold a child's interest. It is written and arranged in a manner that is very appealing and easy to follow. Even I enjoyed reading it before giving it to my 11 year old grandson! If you have a child who is interested in learning about the Smoky Mountains, this is one book that I highly recommend. It is small enough that a child can carry it with him/her while visiting the park to enable them to cross reference what they are seeing up close and personal."
