I loved this book. So much so that I'm now onto the second book of this story, Pigs in Heaven by Barbara Kingsolver. This author has a way of writing that can make you go from laughing hysterically to crying your heart out on the same page. The main character, Taylor, is inspiring. Here's this young girl, not much more than a girl herself, who's had an Indian toddler dumped in her lap. She embraces this child and accepts her for all that she is..... with her problems and all. I've just started reading the second book and it's looking like some person is going to attempt to take Turtle (the Indian child) away from Taylor, just because Taylor is not also Indian. I'm panicking already! NoOoOoO....... you can't take Turtle from her momma!!! It would destroy both of them. Ooops.... sorry........ but I gotta get back to my book!!! :o)
