Not sure exactly who said this, but I recently read advice on reading a good book . . .farmgirlshelley wrote:I actually read this for the first time as an adult, so I read it with great excitement, and I was always worried about what would happen if someone should discover just where her piece of earth was.....WildCityWoman wrote:Well, these people have a lot to share with her - for what they lack in reading/writing, they have things about nature to teach her.
Now, I'm glad she's asked the old man for her 'piece of earth'.
I hope there's going to be no trouble about her having that 'secret garden'.
I don't think he understood that she wanted to work there.
It's such a delightful story.
I could hardly put this book down and I still read it once a year.
Read it 3 times . . . once when you're young, once when you're middle-aged and once when you're old.
I think this book is one that would apply to that advice.
