Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia Maclachlan
This is our January book club pick. Such a sweet story packed into such a small book. I love historical fiction. This is the story of Anna and Caleb a brother and sister who live with their dad on the prairie. Their mom died a long time ago. One day, their father tells them that he placed an add in a newspaper looking for a new wife. Sarah, from Maine responded and she is coming out to visit. Will she like it out there? Will she like them? And most importantly, will she stay?
I’m glad I had the opportunity to re-read this. A lovely book and one that I have always enjoyed.
