Title:  Gypsy Riska
Author:  Lloyd Alexander
Reviewer:   Ilana R. '07

Riska is a girl who is very peculiar. Riska is half gypsy and half like you and me. Her mother passed away and her father said he’d come to get her some day. Meanwhile, Riska stays in a town that her mother had lived in. In each chapter of this book you read different tales that make Riska sly, smart and friendly.

Gypsy’s travel in groups. One day Riska’s father’s group comes to pick up Riska. They say that her father died awhile ago, and they want Riska to come traveling with them. Will Riska go or stay?
