Great writing and great character development.
I used to think the author could only write "chick" literature. The more works of hers I read, the more I realize that she is an excellent writer.

Betty Smith's works are all timeless. Although she is best known as the author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, all four of her books are delightful and well-worth reading.

This a wonderful rendering of an age-old poem. I learned the poet from my grandmother. In her era children memorized literary works, because they were not given copies of the works to keep and/or use. My grandmother recited this poem, and many others, to me through my childhood. I learned them while listening to her. I told the poems and stories to my children and grandchildren. I gave this book to two little neighbor boys, who love literature as much as I do. They now love the poem as much as I have for a very long time.

Fascinating plot. Extremely well written. Introduced me to a new author, who is now one of my favorites. I am reading every one of William Boyd's books as quickly as I can find them.
