The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street
I can not say enough about this book. It was THAT GOOD. It reminded me of Little Women... a beautiful family who welcomes you in and does not let you go...each character bringing something different to the story. It wrapped me up and held me tight. It was so beautiful and touching in its story about a family trying to save their home. Their landlord is kicking them out, so they try to convince him they should stay. They learn why he is such a grump. Their kindness and the touching story hit me hard. I cried. Please read it. You will not be sorry. (FIC GLA)
