A Meadowlark Calling [Paperback]

Patricia Martin (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 9, 2003

To Amber Lockhardt, the song of the meadowlark symbolized joy and a sense of belonging.

Orphaned at an early age and grudgingly raised by relatives on a Kansas homestead, Amber refused to let the hardships of her life overcome her.

Her search for a place she could call home and a man who would truly love her led her to Oklahoma Territory, where she was to find yet more challenges--- and finally, a real and lasting love.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Meadow Lark Calling, May 6, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: A Meadowlark Calling (Paperback)

I recently read this book, A Meadowlark Calling, and I could not put it down. It is beatifully written and tells a story that most of us in this modern era have forgotten about. I grew up in Oklahoma many years ago and can remember much of the hardships experienced by Amber Lockhardt.
The book is printed in large type which makes for easier reading and would be appreciated by the older generation as well as the young folk who would get an excellent description of the trials and tribulations and heartache of growing up on the plains of Kansas and Oklahoma. It is a wonderful book for all ages and reminds me of Little House on the Prairie and Ann of Green Gables series. I want all my children to read this book and I think it should be in every school library.

What a great book---I fell in love with the heroine and didn't want the story to end! Her courage and will to triumph are an inspiration, and the fact that it is a true story makes it even more interesting.
