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!

  3. I 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.
