Rainbow After Rain

Rating:
Summary: How do you mend a broken heart?
Review: I have been saving good books for my children since I was a child, much as my mother did for me. This book, in its first printing, was one such book, passed to me by my mother when I was about 13 or 14, about to be passed to my eldest. Set in the post-WWII years, this book is part of a wonderful series about two families, the Parrishes and the Jordans, who are stationed together in the Army and whose lives interweave, especially through the heroine of this book, Tippy Parrish.

There are so many trite, poorly written and depressing books out for our young adults now, that I find it refreshing to offer my children books that reflect old fashioned values and ideas. Though these books have typical 50's roles for men, women and African Americans, they are none the less still topical, as they deal with how young girls grow up and fall in love. I heartily recommend all of these books!
