I read this book last year for literature. It was a great book and I did not put down the book until I finished it. The story begins with Carrie and her children back in the town where she used to live during wartime. She feels sad as she thinks she caused the deaths of her old friends years ago just before she left the town. Now the story goes on to tell about the time when she and her brother arrived in the town and met Auntie Lou, Mr Evans, Hebzibah, Albert Sandwich etc. It tells about her emotional troubles as she tries to please Mr Evans and her brother. She finds comfort in Mrs Evans home where she can be herself. It also tells about how Auntie Lou finally stood up to Mr Evans, When Carrie had to return home, she does something which she thought was very serious. The story ends very nicely. VERY HEARTWARMING!
