Read this:
"My daddy always said that if the good Lord can take the time to care for something as small as a baby sparrow nesting in a tree, then surely he could take the time to listen to a little girl in Ringgold, Georgia. So every night before I went to bed I got down on my knees and begged the Lord to find me a way out of this town. And every morning, I woke up in the same old place."
Meet Catherine Grace Cline. Her mama died when she was a little girl, leaving her 2nd generation preacher father to raise her and her sister alone. All she dreams of is escaping the confines of their small town. When the baby sparrow finally flies she finds that things aren't always as they seem. I don't want to give any more of it away!
Wonderful story, great story of a small southern town...
Homegrown tomatoes, gospel music, porch swings, and who doesn't love a good Dilly Bar?

Oh my goodness. This looks DARLING! Must check out for MP!
Alison, this one is NOT a kid's book. (Shocker, considering that's all I usually read!) It's good, but I would read it first before I let her read it.
