If only we all were there

I think this book is well written for it's intended purpose, to educate about courtship. It is the story of a girl in a beautiful family reachign the age of courtship, and follows her through the whole process. It is very interesting and hard to put down once you start. I really liked how it covered several different issues, such as being asked on a date by someone who doesn't understand courtship, having someone ask to court whom your parents decide isn't right, having to wait, and being truthful to your prospective spouse even about negative character traits. I like the ideal that is projected, but it is a little discouraging. Sometimes it seems like Miss Right with perfect parents is sitting there waiting for Mr. Right to appear and they will live happily ever after. Of course, we'd all like to match up to the ideal, and that's probably what is being portrayed, that younger kids can grow into this, but sometimes it's discouraging to try to match up to. Anyway, overall it's an excellent book and I plan on reading it to my kids.

A wonderful and encouraging book

This is a wonderful book! Me and my family have been comitted to courtship my whole life, and these books can help you understand courtship really well. Besides having a wonderful, and interesting story line, it is filled with the message of God. Which is the most important thing. This is a wonderful family book, but can also be read to one's self. You'll find yourself extremely enthralled, and won't even want to put the book down. This is about a homeschooling family. And Sarah, the oldest is getting anxious for someone to want to court her. And is having a hard time trusting the Lord to bring her a young man in his own time. And when He brings one to her, will it work out? How does Sarah respond in the uncomfortable place of being asked out on a date? God is in every aspect of this book, and encouraged me in every way. Join Sarah as she becomes closer to the Lord, and learns to trust in Him.
