My original post here.
I finished All-of-a-Kind Family. I enjoyed it and even want to know what happens next - will a baby change the family dynamics? Ella is just on the verge of growing up; what will life hold in store for her? I'd like to read the sequels. I know there are two - More All-of-a-Kind Family, and Ella of All-of-a-Kind Family. There might be more than that. This could be very enjoyable light reading. Where was this series when I was growing up? I would have loved it. Funny that I never knew about it. I read and enjoyed other similar series.
I finished Just David, too. But even if there was a sequel, I wouldn't be interested. It was all pretty predictable. He changes everybody's lives for the better, there's a scare where everybody fears for him - very much like Pollyanna, but not as good. I like Pollyanna and even read Pollyanna Grows Up. I was glad when Just David ended.
Both Just David and All-of-a-Kind Family share the same romantic twist.
Two or three books to go (I originally chose six, not five):
Roller Skates by Ruth Sawyer
Linnets and Valerians by Elizabeth Goudge
The Iliad for Boys and Girls by Alfred Church
