Summary: Great Book
Review: Absolutly charming! In this book Martha leaves Glencaraid valley on a visit to Perth where Grisie now lives. In this book Martha grows up some: she now sees life from a more serious perspective and realizes how much she really loves her family. A longing to see the world awakens in her, too. I was surprised to find a married Grisie and very dissapointed that the wedding was not described.And was Grisie pregnant from June to April ? Despite this incongruence and the lack of Grisie's romantic wedding description, the book is a good one, one of my favorites.

Summary: Not as good as the 1st three!
Review: Beyond the heather hills, wasnt as good as the first 3, mosty the story is in her sisters house and the setting never really goes anywhere else until the end of the book, when she sees her mother again. towards the middle comes a sad part, but at the end comes a very happy part (*hint*, martha's mom becomes a grandmother) It was actually Quite boring to me!! (and I really like the martha years!!) Advice: Read all the Martha & Charlotte years to fully understand Laura's years!!Hope this was good advice!!! :)

Summary: We Just Can't Get Enough of Little House
Review: I enjoyed this book for the most part, although Grisie's father-in-law was such a jerk, I couldn't blame Grisie or Martha not liking him very well. I was glad Grisie's husband was a much nicer person and she was happy in her marriage! I laughed out loud when her husband stood up to his father and told him he was wrong, probably nobody had ever said such things to the old man before!

Summary: We Just Can't Get Enough of Little House
Review: It used to be that people wanted to know "what happened next?" after they read a book. The "Little House" books by Laura Ingalls Wilder have started a new fad: we want to know what happened next AND what happened before. This book is part of the before; Martha is Laura's great grandmother who was born and raised in Scotland. These are great little books. They're not exactly written like the Little House books (there's only one Laura and she was born more than a hundred years ago)but they show life in the times they're written about and they are very enjoyable. If you like Little House, give these a try. This particular one is not the first in the "Martha" series, so be sure and start at the beginning.

Summary: Great Book
Review: Martha is Laura Ingalls Wilder's great-grandmother and the "Martha series" are the books about her life in Scotland. This one has her beginning to grow up and learn to be a young lady. This is a great series of books, as are the ones that cover her daughter (Charlotte) and granddaughter (Caroline, Laura's mother). Remember these are not written by Laura, so they're different from the original Little House books, but they are excellent little books showing the author's view of how the girls' lives went.
