AR: 6.1 I have always loved classic children's literature and have read much of it. I especially love the classics that have animals in them. This particular book is one of my favorites and I think it is equally good when you read it as an adult or as a child. The characters are engaging and realistic and the story draws you in. It is a book I enjoy re-reading. 3.5*** This sequel to the popular Caddie Woodlawn book was originally titled “Magical Melons” Set in the late 1800s, in Western Wisconsin, the books chronicle life in the Woodlawn family, primarily from the perspective of Caddie, who is almost 13 in this episode. She and her five siblings have great fun in and around their farm and the land surrounding it. They enjoy school, visit with neighbors, marvel at the stories told by traveling preachers and peddlers. A rare trip to town fills them with wonder and joy. There are some vignettes that made me cringe … chiefly dealing with the prejudices against the native Indian tribes in the area. But, like the “Little House on the Prairie” series, these books provide a reasonable look at life in those pioneer days. This sequel to "Caddie Woodlawn" is a collection of 14 short stories about Caddie's family and friends. One thing that I really liked about it was getting to know Caddie's siblings and friends a little bit better. I especially liked the stories that focused on Hetty. Even though I didn't think this one was quite as good as the first book, it was still fun to read. Just FYI, this book was originally titled "Magical Melons." I'd recommend this book to children ages 8-12, especially those who like the Little House books, the American Girls series, or (of course) "Caddie Woodlawn. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
