The Story Girl is a delightful hodgepodge of stories. The friendships and unique personalities make this a must-read for all young adults and adults. The spirit of long-ago days when life was much simpler is very appealing for today's reader. I enjoyed the characters and the settings of this book and would like to read the sequel, The Golden Road. Has anyone seen the PBS series that was based on The Story Girl and The Golden Road? I heard that The Road to Avonlea was based loosely on some of the characters from these two books. Sara, Felix, etc.
