We liked this one, but it seemed a bit shallow compared to the others.

This is a very cute story although very convenient. It is a little kids book and I wish it was still published because it is such a great read for early readers, but their is no surprise in the ending.

There were truly a lot of changes for Samantha and even for Nellie and her sisters. I’m glad Nellie was brought back into the story even though it was very sad. I can’t imagine what went on in orphanages at this time in history. Garner and Cornelia are great people and I love that Samantha gets to live with them.
