Mandy by Julie Andrews Edwards

I have always loved this book. This book is by far one of my favorite books and I am not sure why. It might be how sweet it is, or just the simplicity of it, but I love this book. This story has a very good idea and is executed very well. I almost get “The Little Princess” vibes from this story and its type of writing. I fell in love with this book the second I saw it, and re-fall in love with it every time I re read it.
I recommend this book to all age groups. It doesn’t matter if you’re 8 or 31, I’m pretty sure you’ll love this book (if it’s your style).

One of my favorite childhood books. I love the secret world that Mandy gets to have. I still have the book and plan on reading it again. :)
