Caleb's Story
Caleb's Story | Patricia MacLachlan
5 posts | 12 read | 2 to read
Anna has done something terrible. She has given me her journal to fill. In Anna?s journal the words walk across the page like bird prints in the mud. But it is hard for me. It is hard for me to find things to write about. "It?s your job now," Anna says as she hands Caleb her journals, asking him to continue writing the family story. But Sarah, Jacob, Anna, Caleb, and their new little sister, Cassie, have already formed a family, and Caleb fears there will be nothing left to write about. But that is before Cassie discovers a mysterious old man in the barn and everything changes. Everyone is excited about the arrival of a new family member except for Jacob, who holds a bitter grudge. Only the special love of Caleb, and the gift he offers, can help to mend the pain of the past. Caleb?s Story continues the saga begun by the Newbery Medal-winning Sarah, Plain And Tall and its sequel, Skylark, spinning a tale of love, forgiveness, and the ties that bind a family together. Ages 8-10

Finished this audio up yesterday and forgot to review. The third installment in the Sarah Plain and Tall series continues to carry you quietly along in the life of this family, this time through brother Caleb‘s eyes. Glenn Close is an amazing narrator on these middle grade audiobooks. Will definitely be listening to the next one.
(My screen did not look this dusty! Holy cow!)

Finished my buddy read and looking forward to discussing with my adult student who is learning English. With all the contemporary books filled with graphic violence, profanity, abuse of all kinds, and pornography, it was so relaxing to read this gentle, old fashioned book about love and forgiveness. Heartwarming.

I am tutoring a lovely woman from India in English. One of my strategies involves the two of us doing a buddy read. Our first book was Sarah,Plain and Tall. It was the first book in English that she had read on her own, and she loved it! We had wonderful discussions, and have decided to continue the series.

Today was the last day of school & to celebrate, I read a book then took a delicious two hour nap this afternoon. Unfortunately thanks to that incredible nap, I can't seem to fall asleep, so my reading of Sarah, Plain & Tall sequels continues. #whenindoubtreadsomething #insomnia #imsopleasedthatifoundthesebooks #teachersoflitsy
