4.0 out of 5 stars
Enjoyed!,
This review is from: Skippack School / Out of print (Paperback)
This is a good book. My seven year old daughter read it. The story is great, but it is written in a dialect that I found a little difficult. However, my daughter was able to read it and enjoyed it. It has some pictures in it but not on every page. The chapters are rather short so they make for great reading segments.

A Classic in Children's Literature (but Not Boring),
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Skippack School / Out of print (Paperback)
I've loved Marguerite de Angeli's illustrations and stories since I was a little girl (and I'm a grandma now). It's delightful to see that they're back in print, so that I can give copies to my grandchildren. The stories are gentle, but have action enough to keep the interest of young readers who are interested in other times and other places. The art is superb! SKIPPACK SCHOOL is the tale of a boy (son of an immigrant Mennonite family) who gets in and out of trouble in pre-Revolutionary Germantown, Pennsylvania. Try reading it aloud - showing the illustrations, of course - to your 6 to 9-year-old children or grandchildren.
