I enjoyed this book. It is a a quick but stimulating read. It is not quite as good as the first one of Miss Vickers' novels I read, but definitely worth a read. It is also harder to find. None of the discount book chains seem to have any of her work where I live.

Fantastic book for children. I used it as a resource when I taught 2nd and 3rd grades. Now I am a stay at home mom and trying to clean out a bit.

If you like short stories, this is a good on to read. It probably isn't one you want to keep on your shelf and read again 3 years later, but all of Haslett's characters are truly believable. In the book of 9 stories, there was only one I couldn't really get into to.
