For all you readers out there,I would like to tell you a short summary of the book Night Cry by Phliss Reynolds Naylor.Night Cry is a book about a very bravy little girl who gets over a big fear of hers,the girl uncovers a mystery while overcoming her fear of a horse who killed her younger brother.She is remarkablely brave.The girl also betrays a kidnapper to whitch she does not know kidnaps Jason Cory a son a of a famous actor.But this also is a tragic heroic story.I inspire all you readers out there that is into tragic mystery storys to read this book it is terrific.(At first I did not think I would like it because Iam not much of a reader but i really enjoyed it.)

This is a tragic /heroci story of a girl who befriendsa kidnapper, to which she doesn't know, kidnaps Jason Cory a son of a famous actor. {The importance of the setting and Naylor's use of literary divices makes this book a must read for everyone who loves heroic stories.} The stumps farm is the setting of this heart thumping story. Naylor whote about the farm, "The land was enclosed by a wall of vine so dense and dark that trees leaned with its wait". This sentence alone lets you picture it in your mind. Naylor's use of literary devices adds richness to this story. "Vines so heavy it's like a wall all around the place," uses a simile to show how thick the vines must really be. Naylor writes, "The dark horse tossed ghis head eagerly as the breeze fanned his nostrils, and Ellen patted his neck. Sjkhe would ride him again tomorrow. Tomorrow she would pick the last of the buckberries and take them to Granny Bo." Naylor uses a metaphor, "Suspicions mounted in her mind until there seemed a pyramid of doubt pushing through the top of her head," to show the suspicion Ellen has against her father. Phyllis Reynolds Naylor shows extreme talent when using very descriptive literary devices and does and excellent job explaining the setting. If you haven't read this book once already, be sure to pick up a copy because you'll reas it over and over.

This tells of a brave young girl who uncovers a mystery while overcoming her fears of a horse that killed her brother. She finds her inner self aswell as her Remarkable Bravery.

The Night Cry is one of the best books I have ever read!! It is about a young girl and her father. The girl's father gets a job and she has to stay alone for a week. Some unexpecting things happen when she is there. She winds up trying to rescue a small boy that was kidnapped out of his own room. I chose this book because I like horses and on the cover there was a horse. My favorite character was the Grandma because she was funny and mysterious. Everyone in town thought she was crazy. The best part was when the girl was in the barn trying to find out a way to rescue the boy. She finally busted out of the barn on the horse. I liked that part because she hadn't ridden the horse since her brother got kicked off and was killed. The only bad thing about this book is that it is very predictable. Otherwise it was very good!!

This book was extremely good. It had all the makings of a masterpiece. It had friendship,mystery,courage, and alot of other great stuff.

I thought this book was an ok reading book. I am in 8th grade and I thought it was a little young for me. It could have been better.
