'For not once since he set out had he had an opportunity of doing anything for anybody....and not to be able to help was to Gibbie like being dead.'
--Sir Gibbie by George Mac Donald
George MacDonald is a great writer. We have dozens of his books everywhere! Next I'm reading At the Back of the North Wind. I'm excited!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really good book! I like this little section. :)
ReplyDeleteIt has been a good book so far! My favorite part(so far)is when he climbs the hill; the imagery in that one page was some of the best I've read.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED that book! I'm sure you will like it Ruth. :)(Oh, and don't let your sisters tell you the ending.) ;)
