I enjoy it

This is the sequel to Aunt Minnie McGranahan, a book that always makes me cry (in a good way). Like the first book, this book includes several interesting pages of description of Aunt Minnie's system and the routines of living on a farm. Then it gets to the meat of the story - a tornado comes, the family huddles together in the storm shelter, and when it's all over they see that their house has been turned right around! So, they add a new room to the house and make the front the back, and the family reaffirms its togetherness. It's a very touching story. Maybe not quite as good as the first book, but then, that book is in a class of its own.
