An Academy Award movie several decades back - as always, the book is better.

This book is a good, peaceful, relaxing read. A little schmaltzy, but sometimes that's what I want.

This is a wonderful story about a Quaker family in the 1800's . Almost everyone has seen the movie starring Gary Cooper . And everyone knows the book is almost always better than the film. This book does not disapoint. Sweet, funny and so compelling that I found the second book ," Except for Me and Thee".
