1 post | 1 read
For one city-kid turned country girl whose life has been changing nonstop, it seems like its finally time to find her place in her new blended family while settling in for the winter! Cozy up to the final volume of the heartfelt and acclaimed Peapod Farm series! Jen couldn't be more excited to spend time onPeapod Farms with her step-sisters, Andy and Reese. For months, Jen has been so focused on trying to figure out how she fits into her new blended family that she hasn't realized she's found her place... that is until Reese calls her sister. Excited and content, Jen thought she had figured everything out, but now she's not so sure. A rift emerges between the girls as Andy doubles down on being Reese's ACTUAL sister, while Jen is just the STEP sister. With Andy's attitude bringing a cold front to the farm it seems like it's going to be a long winter. Maybe between Peapod Farm's first snow and learning how to tap a tree for sugar, Jen and Andy both will have a chance to truly understand what it means to be family.

4 ⭐This is book 3 in the Peapod farm series. Winter has set in there‘s snow, firewood to collect, and farm chores to do. If you‘ve read the other two books in this series, there is nothing new but a deeper appreciation of Lucy and her family. I like the points where you can see the real artist‘s real hands as they draw the panel that you‘re seeing and how it‘s incorporated into the story. I also like how the author answers

LibrarianRyan questions about the end about characters that are considered not nice, or what it was like having sisters, etc. In a way it feels like an ending to the series but also not an ending, so we‘ll see where the author goes from here. I will say, I like her young readers graphic novels better than her adult stuff so I hope she continues to write for this group. 4d
