Somehow not quite as captivating as Caddie Woodlawn, but still a good read.

4.5 A wonderful continuation to Caddie Woodlawn as told in a series of short stories. We loved hearing "what happened next." The kids, especially, adored this.

I'm old enough to have read this book when it had a different name (Magical Melons.) Always sweet to catch up with Caddie Woodlawn, although this one is more a collection of short stories than the unified tale of the first.

I really liked this book, it is full of sweet, innocent stories. Just plain, old-fashioned fun. A pet sheep, "magical melons" appear, and a trip to a medicine show (a magic show) are part of the fun!

I have always loved classic children's literature and have read much of it. I especially love the classics that have animals in them. This particular book is one of my favorites and I think it is equally good when you read it as an adult or as a child. The characters are engaging and realistic and the story draws you in. It is a book I enjoy re-reading.
