Now, once Isaac meets his tragic death, which from the beginning he knew was going to happen, Isaac faces serious work to pull off the heroic rescue of Naomi, a Choctaw girl who has been captured slave, and is a prisoner in the Nahullo (white) soldier camp. Isaac is incredibly brave, and bravery is in fact the theme of this story. His family's house is burned, and he must walk hundreds of miles with family members dying and a hard journey awaiting them. This mission is only one thing that contributes to his bravery. He knows that by attempting this mission, along with another friend is incredibly life threatening, and they must understand that if they want to save the poor girl, they have to live through the fact that they can be killed easily. He also goes on an incredible mission to save someone's daughter, and he doesn't even know her. He also knows he is going to die very soon, which is nothing anyone wants to hear. He is only 10, and he can see ghosts and see horrible things no one else can see.

Isaac is the bravest boy I have ever read about. The theme of this story is definitely bravery. He could speak to the ghosts, and many are his relatives. Isaac also has experiences with ghosts, as he can ask for help from them and visually see the ghosts. He didn't want to tell his parents, but he knew his time was near. And something was telling Isaac, ( the main character ) that he was going to die soon on the journey to find their home. Sometimes he would walk up to a person, and see how they would meet their fate. He has been experiencing very weird experiences, in which he could see things before they happen. The main character and key to the story is very special. The family is not alone though, as they are walking with many other families in which homes were destroyed.

The family also has to suffer for the family members in which die every day form being killed by the soldiers, or just starving, freezing, etc. The days and nights are unbearably cold, and the journey is made extremely more difficult. The family is forced to leave, and so they escape one night and they are on their journey to find a new home far, far away from the dangerous soldiers. This book is about a Choctaw boy who's family is on a journey from Mississippi on the 'Trail Of Tears', after a group of soldiers from a different area kicked them out by burning homes and shooting people with guns. I recommend this book to all readers, and you WILL enjoy it folks.

The book is a candidate for the Rebecca Caudill award, and it definitely deserves to win. This book is filled with suspense, and it it had me on the edge of my seat the whole ride. This book was really, really good, and it is ranked on my most favorite books of all time. This is my review on the book, 'How I Became A Ghost' by Tim Tingle.
