Summary: Ho Hum kinda book
Review: Meanne runs away from her impending arranged marriage. She goes to her childhood cottage that has been long since forgotten and starts her new life there. Wisp comes into her life like a breeze. Together they make a team and strive for new beginnings.
This book was rather boring. Meanne is very hurried character, as she we don't get to see inside her, just what is on her mind NOW. There was too many foreshadowing that actually lets us know what is going to happen. There is no surprise and there is no climax of the story. Its pretty mellow, a very short read of 94 pages. I honestly kept myself reading, but found myself skimming the pages. I really don't recommend this book, the only McCaffrey story so far that I didn't like.

Summary: A small miracle!
Review: The book is short,but sweet. The story tells of two people trying to hide from someone or something. One of which isn't what it seems to be.

Summary: Charming
Review: Well, this book is definately unique and charming in its simplicity of plot yet depth of language. I have never read Anne McCaffrey before but I thought this was wonderful of her to write for her granddaughter, whom I'm sure will love it once she is 12+ years of age and has a handy dictionary! ha, I had to check more than a few words during the course of this book, and I thought that gave a certain grown up quality to a children's fairy tale. This is a short story, less than 100 pages, yet the characters have depth, if limited, and is steeped in maigic, that probably would have been more fun if explored further than what it was in this book. Overall this is a nice, light and short read that was very lovely, made all the more so with the illustrations around each page that basically fit in with the plot. Check it out.

Summary: small, but wonderful
Review: What a good book! It was so neat, two people living alone in a cabin in the woods away from people and their expectations. Meannie (yes that's her name.) faked her death in order to leave home and live her own life and to be able to use her gift. The fact that they both have gifts (Meannie has a gift with growing things, I won't tell you what Wisp's gift is) is really interesting. The size of the book surprised me- I didn't expect it to be so small or so short. It was expensive for such a small book, but it was worth every penny I paid for it. It was great.
