Delightful Story of First Love


(4 Sterne)

In her characteristic way, Elizabeth Prentiss winds universal truths and treasures into a sweet story of boy meets girl. While it feels a tad preachy every now and again, the kernels of wisdom presented are worth the price. The readers did a fine job, though the final reader felt a bit rushed at times. Highly recommend for teens looking for a dear Aunt Jane to lend an ear and a word fully spoken as comes to courtship and marriage.

A good story & excellent readers
