Thanks for the link! That’s helpful. I’m guessing that as my kids get older, there will be many books that I buy for them but they’re really for me =)

I LOVED this book as a girl. I tucked it in my memory and thought I’d love to give my children a childhood like Betsy had. I always thought it had to do with the country, but you’re right — it’s the underlying themes that resonated so much in me. My Dd, 11, loves this book, too!

I think I’ll have to read it for myself, except that my children will take it from me to read for themselves….

I hope you enjoy it! I got some ideas out of it, too, for how to encourage my kids to solve problems on their own. Always a good thing.

Take care!

Hi Lori, this book sounds interesting. I have placed a hold on it at the library and when it comes in I will let you know my impression.

Thank you kindly for your email. I think I have a lot to learn as my son approaches and joins the school system (or not)!

Will stay in touch.
