Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan
4.0

Patricia MacLachlan's Kindred Souls (YHBA 14-15 nom) inspired me to revisit Sarah, Plain and Tall. Apparently I suffer from some form of book amnesia because I read this as a grade school student, as a public librarian, and now for a third time as a school librarian and only bits of it seemed vaguely familiar. I do consider Sarah essential reading for grade levels studying westward expansion. Both MacLachlan books would be great mentor texts for teaching dialogue within writing workshop. #bookaday
