Miracle at Clements' Pond

Rating:
Summary: excellent reading for mothers and daughters
Review: I bought this book for my daughter and we read it together. We loved it and had never met such wonderful characters as we met in Clement's Pond. I bought books for my daughter's girlfriends and they read it with their mothers. We all agreed that it was a wonderful book for children as well as adults. The girls are ages l2 to 14.I would recommend this book highly.

Summary: How I happened upon this magnificent story.
Review: My dad brought this book home from the library a couple of years ago, and told me to read it. At first I did not think I would like it, but once I started reading it I could not put it down! It was so intriguing, especially with all of the sneaking around that the kids did. I especially enjoyed the parts towards the end when you really find out what's going on.

Summary: Country people in time gone by, people who had values, love
Review: When a baby appears out of the blue, the whole town gets involved in it's life. One woma n, an elderly spinster takes care of it, hoping to keep it always. but the mother appears and the whole town is in an uproar. It is really a gentle book, with children in it who come alive on the page. These children get into all sorts of antics trying to take care of the baby and loving it. Sylvie demands that it be hers and no one else can have it. She is l3 years old and has a mind of her own. The other children try to talk her out of it. Anyone would love this book! I recommend it highly. And so does my daughter!
