- This entry needs to be re-written, its a bit short and choppy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.251.101.34 (talk) 21:32, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
- this looks looks like a 5th grader just copy/pasted their book report. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.65.148 (talk) 21:29, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
This could use some publishing information...at least the year it came out. PurpleChez (talk) 14:30, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
Talking Book Catalog Number
editIf someone can find a good way to present it in the article, the Library Of Congress Talking Book Service Catalog Number for this book is RC32449. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.131.9.8 (talk) 05:36, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Suggestion
editUmm, I'm thinking about making a new article for the movie. Any objections?Shindo9Hikaru 22:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Cleanup
editThis article needs cleanup! I've fixed many errors in the plot section, but there are probably more. I don't know if the tone is right either.--Astroview120mm 02:29, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
The plot summary needs some tweaking up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.5.237.127 (talk) 01:58, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Split
editThe suggestion that this article (on one book) should be split is so absurd that I have removed the split tag. Robina Fox (talk) 20:47, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Verb Tenses
editThe plot summary should be written in the "literary present." Right now it is in mixed past and present tenses. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Summersilk (talk • contribs) 16:29, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I just added the cleanup-tense template. It requires some thorough copyedit work as well; there are lots of run-on sentences, etc. Kjl (talk) 22:26, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
A dog named Caesar.
editAllegedly, this book was used as a cipher-text source for clandestine communications in some high-profile Cold War espionage case? The details, if known, could be added to the article. 87.97.104.25 (talk) 20:50, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

The manuscript was written in New Mexico and not Mexico. 66.44.7.131 (talk) 16:13, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. — {{U|Technical 13}} (t • e • c) 01:46, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
Reception quote sources
editAnyone have any idea who Tess Alfonsin or DeAnn Okamura are? Are these just random quotes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hughpac (talk • contribs) 08:51, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
Cave Name
editI removed the reference to "Robber's Cave" as the name of the cave Billy camped in on his way home from retrieving Dan and Ann from Tahlequah. Billy's father does suppose the cave "…must have been the one called 'Robber's Cave,'" but he is mistaken, as Robber's Cave is about 100 miles in the opposite direction from where Billy is going.

Past content removal
editHey, I was just checking my past contributions and realized that somehow I accidentally removed the entire plot summary section. I wanted to apologize for causing any trouble. GunnarBonk (talk) 21:00, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
