★Genre: The genre of this book is historical fiction. This book is a historical fiction because it happened in the past. This story took in real place, but it’s a made up story. This story was happened in 1904, but it’s a made up story. And this story’s background is similar to early American’s background.

★My Opinion of this book: I really enjoyed this book. First, I thought it will be boring, but this book was very cool. “Meet Samantha” is one of the series of An American Girl. After I read this book, I want to read all series of An American Girl.
