An enchanting book of three chronicles taking place at the turn of the 20th Century. Annie, the red-haired Retriever, and her best friend, Benny the Mouse, attempt to maintain peace and harmony on their beloved farm of Pleasant Grove with the help of their fellow critter friends. There is danger, romance, jealousy, betrayal, scandal, and redemption to be found in each fascinating tale. Written in verse, it is "Seussish" in style and challenges the young reader with its more advanced vocabulary than is usually found in children's fiction. For this reason, the author has published an accompanying glossary to aid her young readers' understanding of the text. An excellent tool for educational purpose, this book goes beyond the customary objective of mere entertainment, functioning as a literary stepping stone. A must read for adolescents of all ages!
