A Strange Place to Find Mary

When I googled Mary Leaves Little House today, I found a new link to the Harper Collins site. There were book reviews of the book on the page dedicated to The Attack of the Frozen Woodchucks. I also found the reviews on the actual book page(more reviews there):

Great read and a great addition to the Little House on the Prairie collection. I have always wondered what life was like when Mary went to blind school and the author did a great job in coming up with a probable answer. Now if someone will come out with a book about Carrie and Grace-it'll make the series more complete.

Mary Leaves Little House, by Elizabeth Cody Kimmel, is a perfect transition from the Little House books of years ago. Kimmel has done a wonderful job capturing the personalities of the Ingalls family, and I loved "seeing" the world through Mary's eyes. I was always intrigued with what became of Mary once she had grown up and left home, and this book offers the answer I had wondered about for so long. This is definitely a book I'd recommend to anyone who is a fan of the Little House series!

What I liked best about this book was that the author kept true to the style of Laura Ingalls Wilder. I always wondered what life for Mary was like...this book is a realistic account of life at the school for the blind. Mary really had to be on her own for the first time, and it was a wonderful way to see the obstacles she faced and how she overcame them. Mary was a very strong person and this is a wonderful look at their life.

I realize I might be becoming slightly obsessive about this book.
