Rip Van Winkle
This story was about a man named Rip Van Winkle and he was drugged
by some Dutch ghosts. He slept for twenty years. When he woke up the
town was really different. His wife was dead and his kids were grown. He ended up living with his grown daughter and her husband.
I like this book because it was a strange story. It has some unusual things in it like a man that sleeps for twenty years and ghosts that look completely solid. I would recommend this book
to some people. I would recommend this book to grown-ups and children that are in the fourth grade and up.
