jovvijo 's review for:
Sarah, Plain and Tall
by Patricia MacLachlan
Ahhhh, heart warming books are the best to read as Winter fades to Spring this side of the globe!
I think what really got me was that the children weren't the stereotypical: "You're not my real mom!!" sort that pop up all over the place like pimples before the prom, they were really likable and yet believable children as well.
And Sarah was lovely! A strong woman but a loving one, and anyone who can love three raggedy chickens, rather than eating them, will always go down as a great person in my books!
One day I hope to see the sea again and when I do, I will take this little book with me to re-read, just so that Sarah can feel the magic all over again!
Recommended for anyone who just wants a bit of, "Aw" in their life.
