shgmclicious 's review for:

Emily of Deep Valley by Maud Hart Lovelace

4.0

I can't believe I missed out on reading this when I was younger! I liked this almost more than the Betsy-Tacy books, because I can more identify with Emily than any other inhabitant of Deep Valley. This book was so much fun, and it's so relevant today when you look at the issues of sociology, immigration, treatment of immigrants, and high school social structure's demolishing after graduation.
