This is a wonderful book full of fun, and complete with a suprise ending! The story is well written, and you get a feel for the main character's somewhat hectic life. A little girl loses both of her parents at sea, yet refuses to admit that they are dead. After living with a neighbor for some time, she is relocated to her uncle's house. Every chapter in this book is followed by a recipe - my favorite, and the reason I had to get this book is the "Cherry Pie Porkchops." (Better than you think.) My ten year old is enjoying this book as much as I am.
