Description During Books Mandy

The magic of finding a home Mandy, a ten-year-old orphan, dreams of a place to call her own. Escaping over the orphanage wall to explore the outside world, Mandy discovers a tiny deserted cottage in the woods. All through the spring, summer, and fall, Mandy works to make it truly hers. Sometimes she "borrows" things she needs from the orphanage. Sometimes, to guard her secret, she even lies. Then, one stormy night at the cottage, Mandy gets sick, and no one knows how to find her--except a special friend she didn't know she had.

Criticism Regarding Books Mandy

Is anything more satisfying than reading about someone else doing a lot of tidying up?

I wish I could give it 10 stars. This is one of the most warm, comforting, emotionally moving stories for kids and if you are smart to toss aside meaningless labels, for adults as well.Mandy is 10 years old and something of a loner at the orphanage where she has lived most of her life. The Matron and staff are kind to the children and try to make a real home for them but Mandy longs for something more. She has a friend and room mate named Sue who she frustrates by wanting to be alone so much she

Precious story of an orphan finding a place of her own, which feels like an updated version of The Secret Garden, with more than a dash of A Little Princess thrown in! And yes, it's written by THAT Julie Andrews! And written well!

I really enjoyed this book! It was lent to me by a friend and when I looked at the back and saw that it was written by Julie Andrews I was really excited to read it because I love her as a actor. This was such a sweet story of a little girl who is a orphan and just wants a family of her own. I say would it has positive themes, although the girl lies a few times and deliberately disobeyed people, it is resolved in the end and it is not portrayed as a good thing. This is a good book for ages 7-12,

As of ten minutes ago I finished this book by Julie Andrews. Even though I work in a book store I came across this title in a back door sort of way. A couple of months ago I was boasting to my friend that I have a really good success rate with finding books for customers when there is almost nothing to go on. Taking me up on the challenge she asked if I knew about this children's book...details: main character is Mandy and she has her own world beyond a big wall. It was fairly easy to find - the

We have been working through this as a read aloud for our family this summer. Every night we would read it, my kids would beg for another chapter. We really felt invested in Mandy and her well-being. There were also many moral questions (appropriate for my kids age, such as "was she right to lie"?) that made good additional talking points. I would highly recommend reading this as a family!

This was so charming and sweet! I loved it and it reminded me of The Secret Garden.
