Loading... The Ballad of Lucy Whipple (1996)by Karen Cushman, Karen Cushman
Loved, loved, loved this book! A great read from start to finish. I rooted for the character all the way! (  ) TeamDewey | Apr 25, 2013 |  This book is a great book for an ELL young girl to read, because it is very interesting and is easy to read. Even though it is easy to read it is a chapter book, so this will keep the student busy for a little while. I would put this under my independent reading for girls. I don't think guys would be very interested in this book. (  ) ababe92 | Oct 15, 2012 | I loved this book. It is the story of a girl who loves books and starts a library when she grows up in her little gold-mining town. I am never disappointed with Karen Cushman. She truly delivers! ( ) jencaffey | Jul 31, 2012 | I love Karen Cushman's books and this is no exception. The character is relateable and the story is fun to read. This could be used in curriculum about the California Gold Rush and settling the American West. ( ) bluemopitz | Aug 12, 2010 | In 1849, 12 year old Lucy Whipple moves west to Lucking Diggins, California with her widowed mother who runs a boarding house in a mining town. Lucy longs to return to her New England home and her old life. The town's characters are often rough and peculiar, but often turn out to be good-hearted.
