5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent coming of age book for young women.,
By StoryLady "V." (Knoxville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Going on Sixteen (Paperback)
This has been a very special favorite book of mine for over 25 years. Betty Cavanna writes with wonderful caring and sensitivity of a young girl's struggles with the absence of her mother (died), her red hair and freckles, and a remote father at the critical time of turning 16. And then there is the collie - a runt turned unexpected champion through loving care! It's a book I have passed on to cousins and neices for years. I hope you will love it as much as I do.

I got this book from a used book sale when I was younger. I read it and LOVED it. There is just something so simple and fantastic about it. I has a simple kind of love story that captivates readers. When I first read this I just couldn't put it down. I have an older copy, it was published in 1967. I love it. It is my favorite book, it has a vintage feeling and cover. So maybe I'm a bit impartial but I love this book for now and forever.
