Family love triumphs in this heartwarming story. Lots of laughs, too. The protagonist, 10-year-old Sally O'Malley, is delightful. I loved seeing her 1959 Milwaukee world through her eyes. I listened to the audio book and the narrator, who is none other than the author herself, does a fabulous job. Perfect accent and inflections. I just discovered there's a sequel called Good Gracesl. I'll be seeking it out.
