The novel Sarah, Plain and Tall was written by Patricia MacLachlan. This is is a wonderful story about two littlekids who have lost their mother, a father, and a woman named Sarah who journeys west to start a new life for herself. She comes on a trial basis to live with a family on the prairie. The time this story took place was long ago because they had wagons and lived and did things the old fashion way. It takes place on a farm in the country on prarie grasslands. Caleb and Anna's mother had died after Caleb was born. The whole family was vey sad.

I thought this book was okay. It didn't have any action in it and it wasn't very exciting. It was a good family book about love and trust.
