Riding Freedom is a historical fiction book by Pam Muñoz Ryan that is based on the actual person, Charlotte "Charley" Darkey Parkhurst. The person is real, but most of the story is just from the author's imagination. I really enjoyed reading the beginning, when I am introduced to Charley and how she was so strong to survive multiple fevers and even a large crash that killed her parents instantly when Charley was two and a half years old. I think the title is called "Riding Freedom" because inThis book is about a girl that is stuck at an orphanage only because the person in charge of the orphanage keeps on hiding her when it comes to the day of adoption. So everyone thinks the orphanage has only boys when it actually has one girl along with the boys. She eventually runs away and spends majority of her life trying to survive by pretending to be a boy. She spends the rest of her life hiding from the orphanage and anyone that would send her back to the orphanage. Charlotte Parkhurst is
I usually read the first chapter where the little girl is thrown from the wagon and her parents are killed. I then tell the kids that this story originates from a real woman's life story and that there is a secret to her life and because of that secret (which they will find out if they read the book), she becomes the first woman to vote in the state of California.
This story is about a kid that likes to ride freedom with his horse around the place he lives in. So the kids parents bought him a horse at the age 9 because he really wanted one like he would beg his parents to buy him one so one day his parents went to a ranch where they sell the horses and they sall a cheap nice looking horse so they decided to buy it for his son so the parents go to the house and get the trailer and go back to get the horse after that they get home and the kid get really
I really think this was a great book but it almost makes me cry when Freedom dies! And I don't understand why the title is Riding Freedom. But, I think it's called like that because it's the freedom of riding but why is there a capital letter? Anyway, if she rides the filly that she named Freedom, we don't now it! But I have to say that it's a wonderful story full of happiness!!!
This quick read follows the life of Charlotte, a young orphan with a charming personality and strong ability to work with horses. The historical fiction novel depicts the hardships that women faced before it was legal to vote in the United States, and Charlotte's determination to live in a "man's world" where she won't be accepted is remarkable.
