This is not a novel for the impatient reader. It is a quiet, well-written, snapshot of life in Montana in 1909. It is about brothers and their father, all still in the shadow of their mother's death. It is about a whistling visitor. And it is about quality education. My guess is that the author was not seeking to entertain, but rather to create.

If I were to always read page-turners, my family would never see me3 ½ starsEnjoy!
