Starfish by James Crowley

Blackfoot Nation siblings, Lionel and Beatrice, steal a horse and run away from their boarding school to spend nine months hidden in a cabin in the Montana mountains. They survive in the old ways, thanks to the teachings of their grandfather.

I enjoyed this historical fiction book. I loved the character of Beatrice who was strong and fearless and her younger brother, Lionel, who looked up to her so. I enjoyed their adventures and admired their determination to live free like their ancestors.
