| Publisher Description: Classics for Your Collection: goo.gl/U80LCr --------- The story is about several cousins and friends in their pre- and early teens who are spending a year together on the family farm on Prince Edward Island. It is narrated from the view of a boy named Bev King looking back on his childhood. Bev and his brother Felix are sent to live with their Aunt Janet and Uncle Alec on Prince Edward Island while their father travels for business. There they become acquainted with their cousins Felicity, Dan, Cecily, and Sara Stanley aka the Story Girl, as well as befriending Sara Ray a neighbor and Peter the hired boy. It covers many domestic adventures and dramas through school, church, neighbors, and through it all The Story Girl weaves tales to entertain and relate to every life event. Imagination and a hint of magic touches things, just as it did with Anne of Green Gables. But most of all it deals with family and friendship, and how the group grows close through it all. The passing days include playful fancies, raucous romps, and poetic tales (as narrated by their cousin Sara Stanley, the Story Girl). The characters are all wonderfully varied and vibrant with their own virtues and flaws, and it deals very nicely with common troubles of growing up. You will love The Story Girl for her otherworldly nature, for being so wise in some ways and so na ve in others, and for her unique outlook on life and people in general.
