So B. It

The book So B. It is a really interesting story. A girl name Heidi who has a mother who only knows 23 words. One day someone took the baby Heidi and her mother in. She took care of them a lot. Heidi doesn't know anything of her father, her birthday, her grandparents, and what her mothers name is. (She tells them her name is So B. It) Heidi wants to know those stuff, and goes on a trip alone. Read this book to see if she accomplishes her dream and also to find out a real sad event that happens. I like this book, I recommend it. It is interesting and hard to put it down. I don't like it because something sad happens toward the end. Overall I really think you should read this book.

The peace between the clans has disappeared, making a huge threat to the warriors—and the warrior code. As winter comes closer, Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Dovepaw realize just how close the battle is, and how far they are from being able to win it.
