This book has done it! It has past all the others on my list of favorite books, this is now my new all time favorite book!
I not only felt like I knew the characters, I felt like I was living Gracelyn's life along with her. Feeding chickens, milking cows, tending sheep, I was tired when she was tired, I felt sad for her disappointments, I was happy when she found time for her drawing, and I cried right along with her, long and hard at her tragedy. Gracelyn said it best "I learned more in a few months on this farm than I have in the past 20 yrs. of my life"
I love it when a book affects me so much, and this one did, and will for a long time.
What a wonderful Author! (By the way - Her other book "Jenny's Mountain" is also on my list of all time favorite books)

My 2nd favorite book of all time (1st. is Tilting at Windmills). This is not your basic "woman surviving" book.This is a wonderful, sad, heartwarming, heart retching, very encouraging, way-to-go! "woman surviving" book! If you think your life sucks, read this book, you will feel better about your life. I loved it, bought it and will read it again.
