"Francesca of Lost Nation" is a beautiful coming of age story about nine year old Sarah, and her wonderfully close relationship with her grandmother Francesca. The story is set in the summer of 1947 Iowa. Sarah is left behind at "Home Farm" with Francesca while her parents are on a luxurious trip to France. Little did they know their summer together would be filled with adventure, mystery and danger.
This was quite a page turning novel. Francesca is such a gutsy woman, and well ahead of her time. When she falls in love, she loves fiercely, and when her heart breaks, it broke deeply. Of course, not only did she dislike dresses, but she loved fast cars! Even though the story was primarily about Francesca, the main character and narrator is Sarah. For a little girl, she comes across intelligent and wise beyond her years. This is a great summer read, filled with mystery, romance and adventure!
