The relationship between grandmother and granddaughter is understated but very tender and the comic moments are a lot of fun. a warning to animal lovers, there is one chapter regarding foxes that you might want to skip altogether. It is a country/farm based story and rather matter of fact about things that would upset people ( ) Richard Peck's ability to create strong characters in such a short book astounds me. I love the spirit in A Year Down Yonder just as much as in A Long Way From Chicago. Both books are collections of incidents and mishaps around Grandma Dowdle. She is a delightful, funny, strong character. Richard Peck portrays her through the eyes of her grandchildren - in this case, Mary Alice - and it's interesting to see her transform in their opinions. I also like the hints of a darker, sadder backstory behind her. If Richard Peck wanted, he could have written about Grandma Dowdle before she was Grandma (maybe he did?) and still have a thoughtful, exciting story. Because the tone is so light, this book is the perfect length. I enjoyed it and would add it to my collection. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
