  • Greed and How it Changes Us

    Yudit K. - 6 years 4 months ago

    Scott O'Dell may be most famous for Island of the Blue Dolphin, and yes, that is a wonderful novel, but O'Dell wrote many other historical fiction novels for kids that are just as enjoyable. The King's Fifth is one of these wonderful novels that O'Dell wrote. In it he writes about conquistadors and their search for the lost city of gold. The novel discusses themes such as greed and where it can lead you. O'Dell is also wonderful in his descriptions of the landscape and his character developments throughout the book. Although written for a younger audience, adults and children alike will enjoy reading this wonderful story! #summerreading
