Faith, Hope, & Ivy June/ Phyllis Reynolds Naylor/ 280 pgs.


This story about a student exchange program between an upper middle class student and a student from Appalachia seemed really contrived. I'm sure it was to make the points that everyone is different yet everyone is the same. The story is ok. The girls and their surroundings are well portrayed. Each girl has a family crisis in which a life is at risk and they
come to support each other. It was ok, but not believable to me. The girls seemed quite mature for their age. It's a Mark Twain.
