DESCRIPTION:
All rights reserved. Her maturation from girl to young woman, which develops naturally over the course of the novel, seems all too sudden and unsatisfying in this picture-book rendition.

"Five Stars" according to Cary L. Holman. A great story of restoration.. Carolyn Wield said Five Stars. It was so realistic. Loved it! I read this book when I was younger and wanted to read it again as we went to Nova Scotia this past year and went to the actual cottage and grounds. While reading this book again it was wonderful be able to have a minds eye of all the places she talked about in it. Her command of the English language is amazing. Her adjectives and descriptions were just fantastic. I would recommend this book to all girls, young and old. It truly is an "uplifting classic."
