Eleven-year-old Mandie Shaw is nervous about her trip to visit her Cherokee relatives. The journey through a North Carolina mountain forest is full of dangers like stalking panthers, and she wonders if her dead father's kinspeople will even like her once she arrives. But the trip to the Indian reservation is only the beginning of Mandie's many adventures. When Mandie and her friends get lost in a secret cave, they discover a pile of gold left behind by a legendary Cherokee chief. Is it really cursed, as legend insists? Faced with kidnappers, thieves, and the Carolina wilderness, Mandie uses the strength she finds in her faith in God to choose the proper path - for both herself and the Cherokee people. A warm-hearted sequel to Mandie and the Secret Tunnel, Mandie and the Cherokee Legend provides all the thrills listeners of this series have come to expect, colorfully voiced by Kate Forbes's sparkling narration.

      Gr 3-6-In Mandie and the Cherokee Legend (Bethany, 1983), the sequel to Lois G. Leppard's Mandie and the Secret Tunnel (Bethany, 1983), Mandie goes to visit the reservation to become better acquainted with her Cherokee relatives from her father's side of the family. Her time there is fraught with adventure as she makes new friends, gets trapped in a cave, finds a golden treasure, is kidnapped, and has to deal with her cousin Tsa'ni who tests her Christian values. Is the gold Mandie found truly cursed? What will the Cherokee decide to do with it? This pioneer story a fair example of Christian literature. The narration by Kate Forbes is clear, crisp, and well-paced. Some might be upset by the stereotypical way in which some of the Native Americans speak stilted English mixed with catch phrases and words such as "happy hunting ground," "squaw," and "papoose." Still, this will be welcomed by those who already know and love this spunky heroine.-Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School, Federal Way, WA
