I love Betsy. Her life is just how I think childhood should be. I also love that my kids begged me to read chapter after chapter, because they loved it so much.

One of the better entries in the series. Gosh these are good children, with even better parents. Too sweet and sunny to be true, or to read all in one season, tbh.

I didn't think I had read this one in the series as a kid but then some of these stories were VERY familiar so I guess I did! Enjoyed reading this with my 7 year old. He liked it too.
