One For the Murphys
I have to write about my favorite Caudill book that I've read so far.....One for the Murphys!
The author does a great job using detailed writing to evoke emotion and
develop a connection between me and the characters. I love Carley and
all of the Murphys. Carley faces a dilemma....does she trust this new
family or will she be hurt by them? Carley is a strong soul, and she
does triumph over her fears and all of the various disappointments in
her life! It's a great lesson for us all!

I loved this book! It made me cry.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this one yet, and thanks for the recommendation, Mrs. Corbett! I will have to add One for the Murphys to my summer reading list!
ReplyDeleteI loved One for the Murphy's, from the start, it was an interesting story, and I fell in love with Carley - such a strong, perseverant character.
