A review by katiegilley
Blackbird House by Alice Hoffman

This was a wonderful story about a house and the people who lived in it over what seems to be a couple of hundred years. The house is a farm in Cape Cod, MA that is inhabited by white blackbirds, sweet peas, turnips, and the ghosts of residents-past. The stories really focus on the people involved, with the house as a cozy, homey backdrop. Definitely moving and definitely enjoyable.
