Oh @LeahBergen what a wonderful parcel! Well worth the wait! 😉 Thank you so much! Thrilled with the books! (So pleased to have a Handheld Books edition as I eyed them for years but never purchased one!) Love the card, the post card, the bookmark, the whole kit'n'caboodle. ☺️ And curious if you would recommend visiting Mankato?

Crinoline_Laphroaig I loved visiting Mankato a few years ago! 2mo
rubyslippersreads I‘ve visited Mankato a couple of times. You can tour Betsy‘s and Tacy‘s houses, and sit on the Friendship Bench. It‘s a pilgrimage for #BetsyTacy fans. 2mo
LeahBergen Yay, it arrived!! I really enjoyed my visit to Mankato and seeing all the little spots from the books. And just what @rubyslippersreads said … the house tours were so fun! 2mo
Cathythoughts Lovely 🥰 2mo
MaureenMc There‘s a Betsy-Tacy Convention in Mankato this year, in October. My daughter & I are hoping to attend! 2mo

The story is so adorable and hilarious. I laughed out loud many times. The Herdmans are a mischievous (but humorous) group of kids. The message behind the story was very cute. I loved that the town grew to like the Herdmans and their antics, and that the Herdmans were able to be part of a community and learn more about the story of Christmas.

I stopped buying gifts for my niblings years ago. They have all the stuff they could ever want. I buy savings bonds to put a few dollars away for their futures for birthdays and Christmas. So here I am bundled up and ready to sleep instead of being out shopping with the crowds.

LiseWorks So smart! 3mo

It was a strange feeling to read this story about German POWs in lower Michigan during WWII. I never knew POW camps existed in Michigan until I was an adult, and to discover this story has a connection to the teeny (teeny) tiny town I spent my early childhood in was just bizarre. I enjoyed the verse and the POVs of these two characters. I did not enjoy the very abrupt ending, though it's certainly fitting in any book on WWII.
