Books: Help!

[ailbhe]

I have just discovered that some books I read as a child were by Gene Stratton-Porter and appear to be very hard to get in the UK (we all know what "limited availability" means to Amazon, don't we?) so I'd like someone else to do my thinking for me.

"Girl of the Limberlost", "The Keeper of Bees," and "The Magic Garden" are the ones I'm most interested in - and I'm not sure that "The Magic Garden is the one I think it is so a plot summary would be nice.

The Girl of the Limberlost

That would be fantastic - let's see if barakta finds her copy first since she's already looking. Is it as good as I remember? The thing I think most about is the lunchboxes - she had fantastic food in those.

It's definitely as good as you remember :-) I still re-read my ancient copy pretty often - in fact you have inspired me to get it out again, as soon as I have finished the Bill Bryson I'm on at the moment.
