4 Stars Great lessons
It's an adorable book for children, that teaches lessons. Bess is moving to a new home, and is trying to deal with not only a new place, but the death of her father. It was a quick read, mostly because it was a shorter story. It was able to wrap up well, and there was a great chemistry of characters. It was a great Middle School read, and younger children would enjoy it, as well, whether it was read to them or they read it themselves.
