Charming little book about Scandinavian Lutherans. I read it while dating a Swedish Lutheran and it gave in insight into his family.

One of the best books I have ever read. You feel the warmth and happiness of being a part of this family. I also found it spiritually uplifting as there were many lessons learned thru their experiences. It also gives wonderful insight to the life of homemakers in the early 1920's. Very inspiring! A book every Christian homemaker would want to read.

This book is wonderful. It is full of stories of perseverance, hope, and the encouraging message that our Lord has us always in the palm of His hand - it is we who forget. I will be keeping this book and pulling it out regularly for a re-read.
