Can you imagine waking up hundreds of years past your time; where every thing and every one is taller than a mountain. This is what happened to a small Indian named Little Bear when Omri placed him in his cupboard .It all started on his birthday when he received the small plastic Indian from his best friend Patrick, an old cupboard from his brother, and a mysterious key from his mom that was passed down to her by her great grandmother. Omri placed the Indian into the cupboard locked it with the key and soon after the Indian was alive; it could talk move and had a history this wasn’t the beginning of the Indians life just another chapter. The Indian was the son of the Iroquois chief he could even speak English. When Omri realized this he knew he couldn’t tell any one he went on feeding and watching the small figure but soon it slipped out; he told Patrick of his magic and Patrick wanted to see for himself. Patrick was amazed and as soon as Omri is gone he places his small cowboy figure in the cupboard and turns the key. This creates many challenges like the feud between cowboys and Indians and not only feeding two little men but there horses as well. Patrick decides to keep Boone ( the cowboy) and everything that could go wrong does go wrong. Especially when Little Bear decides he needs a wife.
I rated this book 8 out of ten. I gave it this rating because it is very intriguing you sit there thinking one thing is sure to happen when all of a sudden something else happens; the thing I liked most about the book was when the cowboy would talk an example of this is “Whur’s the rows of desks? Whur’s the slate ‘n’ bit o’ chalk? Why ain’t the teacher talkin’?” . Most the time this was interesting but sometimes they went off to talk about things that didn’t matter which made you loose interest .I have seen the movie but it was long ago and I don’t remember much but I definitely liked the book better. To make the book better I would have more detail and take out dead information. The book leaves you with many questions but to answer those you have to read the other three books in the series.
