pickIt may be menopause, but Mandy has made emotional. A realistic look of an orphan who experienced bitterness and frustration because she doesn't understand the feelings of desiring something of her own. She thinks it's a cottage she needs, but it's a family.
It just reminds me of the peace and joy of reading my wonderful books as a child. The font, the yellowing pages, the smell, all make me forget I am an adult and I back to simpler times.
Butterfinger @TheBookHippie thank you for this challenge. As a child, I would have preferred Sara Crewe or Mary Lenox to Mandy, but in this time of my life, Mandy is more realistic of children. Wanting more than life offers. Whew, Mary Poppins, I didn't know you could write. #ChildrensClassicRead2025 6h
