This is a quick read, and it's--boring. It's definitely for children, but I don't intend to be derisive. It's just odd to return to, when I remembered something so different. Much was made of Jane wanting to wear her hair up, not in a braid, and I--okay, sure. I don't know a lot about the history of hairstyles. I figured the reason Jane has to wait until she's fifteen is probably because that's when girls started being called on or courted. As a kid, I tried to start an Abracadabra Day in my household. My parents were not amused. As an adult, I remembered Paul's Abracadabra Day vaguely, but that was it. What a treat it was to read about Anne's and Jane's! How clever, and well-characterized. Anne's made me laugh, and I actually read the passage twice. But I wasn't attached to anyone in the book. I didn't care overall. There were interesting moments, and I'm glad I read it again. But if I want to read about a family on a wagon trail, I'll stick to "Across the Wide and Lonesome Prairie" of the Dear America series. ( )
