THOUSAND ACRES

A Thousand Acres By: Jane Smiley Andrea Schade This is a book report about the book A Thousand Acres. Jane Smiley wrote this book, the grade level is 7.7 and it is worth twenty-seven points. This book is about three sisters who are each trying to be given a third of the farm corporation set up by their father. The aging father is trying to set up the corporation so that the daughters won’t have …

…two girls were stronger-willed. They just let themselves be pushed over and the problem was never resolved, then their father died and they never talked about it with him. I also don’t like the fact that the sisters were arguing over the land like it was a toy. It was an easy book to understand, but most people wouldn’t really care for it because not many people can relate to it. Word Count: 479
