Sing Down the Moon A Customer It�s a lovely spring day, with the sun beating down on you; you�re taking your horses out for a ride in the fields, with your best friend. Well that�s what those two fourteen-year-old girls, Bright Morning and Running Bird do. I learned a lot about Bright Morning and Running Bird and all about their culture, family, and friends by reading Sing Down The M. Singing Down the Moon K. O'Connor 1. SDM took place over a period of two year, starting in spring and ending in spring. The book starts of in a village called Canyon de Chelly, which is located in Arizona. As Bright Morning was tending her sheep one day a pack of Spaniards came and took Bright Morning and her friend, Running Bird. The Spaniards took her and Running Moon to a village where they were to be slave girls. Af. Kristen's review I like this book because it's about an Indian girl who got kidnapped by the Spaniards. She is very determined to get away. I also like it because I have loved Indians forever. I would take the Indian's side if anything were going to happen to them. Another reason why I liked it is because the person who bought her was very nice and not mean to her. Bright Morning was kidnapped twice. Br
