Probably one of the greatest reads for young girls. No question boys too can enjoy and get something out of it. More here than meets the eye. The girls deal with real sin issues and the mother particularly preaches to them. Overtly Christian and “preachy” yes, but a good sermon to a 12 yr, old woven into entertainment, is the very thing I want my daughters reading. There are numerous examples of loyalty and positive encouragement of the sisters and even to their friend Laurie. The girls do grow up and get married, which is a long way off for most middleschoolers (or is it?), however, the issues are so real and could enlighten young readers to the issues that even their parents are facing, and it will certainly help prepare them in a super safe place. If only my own daughters would grow up to be like those March girls!
