Road to Tater Hill is about a little girl name Annie. Annie is staying with her mother, grandmother and grandfather around a hill called "Tater Hill". Her father is away in Germany for the Air force and wont come back till the end of the summer. This summer her mother is having a baby girl. Annie later finds out the the baby girl dies during birth. Annie's mother soon get extremely depressed and doesn't do anything for a long time. On her adventures during previous stays at her summer home she met a boy named Bobby. Bobby is Annie's best friend. One day Annie was venturing out around Tater Hill she goes to the creek and finds a rock that has the same weight as a baby that has been recently born. She then meets an old woman that was an accidental-murderer that has been released from jail. That woman's name is Eliza McGee.

This book really kept me busy for weeks when I was reading it. At the start it sounded very depressing but continuously got better and happier. Then depressing, it was kind of like in a loop. After Annie met Eliza everything started to "turn up to the sun". And get better near the end. I just really enjoyed this book and want to say thank you for the amazing reading.

bitter sweet story. She sure described the road to Grandfather Mountain well. It used to be such a scary drive and on the bridge people would get it swinging, just like Bobby did. I don;t think you can do that now with the new bridge.

Born July 13th, 1663. Died July 14th, 1963. Annie's little sister, Mary Kate, had only lived for 1 day before she had died. Annie's mother sat curled up in a rocking chair, a small little lump curled up in Annie's grandmother's sweater. Annie knew that the person that was in that rocking chair wasn't her mother. Annie desperately wanted a friend. Someone that she could trust and help. The person that she found was a women who lived down the hill from her. The women used to be murderer but Annie was able to see the nice side of her.
I would definitely recommend this book for people who like a sad but also heartwarming story. The author made me feel like I was really in the story. The way the author revealed the plot was perfect. It made me want to keep reading the story. The author showed the emotions of the characters in an amazing way. I would definitely recommend this book to other people.
