The Fields of Home
Ralph Moody
Bison Books, 1993
Wonderfully evocative
+ Great Book Great Author
+ Best of the Set (so far)
I cannot praise Ralph Moody enough. This book is so well structured and well written that it is obviously a "made" work, but that certainly doesn't make it false. It is a truthful story inasmuch as the characters speak as they should, and the times are brought alive as good writing should do.

The Complete Peterkin Papers
Lucretia P. Hale
Houghton Mifflin (Juv), 1974
Hahaha. They are so bad, I have to laugh out!
+ Funny. A true Joy to Read
+ The Complete Peterkin Papers
Ok, I never heard of this book until I got it and thought it was one of those serious books. But when I was at the first story and Mrs. Peterkin did the first thing, I was thinking "What?"
