Good Collection of Novellas

It took me about four hours to read, and boy, was it worth all the time. I loved this collection. I enjoy reading these types of books, but the whole "teacher" aspect grabbed me because that is my dream occupation. I truly enjoy the reading material that this gave me.

DEAR TEACHER: A young teacher, Judith King meets Ernie, a widower with two kids who attend her class. With a little matchmaking on his son's side, they end up becoming attracted to each other, but both feel unworthy of one another at the same time! When Ernie makes a huge mess of things with a question, he feels he has lost his chance. But, first guesses may be wrong.

PRARIE SCHOOLMARM: Marin Nilsson, a Swedish immigrant to America, finds her Swedish neighbors in need for a school. She creates her own little class with some help from a very attractive family friend, Talif. But when Marin is asked to tutor Talif, Marin makes a mess of words! But a surprise from all the older male students may have Marin reconsidering her hidden feelings for Talif.

RELUCTANT SCHOOLMARM: When Christa comes to town to meet her uncle, surprising timing have the townspeople believing that she is teh beloved town doctor's fiancee'. When Grant, the doctor, tells them his fiancee will be teaching the town children, they all believe taht she is the one. But when the real fiancee comes to town, Christa and Grant both reconsider the situation of her leaving and the fiancee staying.

SCHOOLBELLS AND WEDDING BELLS: When circumstances put Meredith Rose and her brother, Marcus Macrae into teh town of Last Chance, Idaho, she is horrified at the fact that she may have to teach. But when it is the handsome, kind town boss, Brit, she reconsiders. But a scary man in the town is attracted to Meredith Rose, and Brit promises to protect her. But when the pursuer gets too close, Meredith finds out of Brit's true feelings.

*The only one that was a little slow and boring was the second novella, PRARIE SCHOOLMARM, it was a little hard to understand, due to some Swedish language used to make it seem real.*

This was a very good book,I wasn't familiar with this writer,but she makes an impression in this book

Good Read

I really enjoyed the stories in this Novella. I have a soft spot for teachers from days past, and I think these ladies did a fantastic job portraying the realities and hearts of many young women who were put in a one room classroom with very little resources. The Christian perspective was very touching. A great read for mother and daughter alike.
