Review # 1 was written on 2020-06-11 00:00:00 Patrick Gysel One of my favorite books as a kid. I just finished reading it to my daughters. If you live in the Pacific Northwest and have been to the Long Beach Peninsula it's a fun read.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-06-12 00:00:00 John C. Stoner "Sarah and Me and the Lady from the Sea," is part of a trilogy of excellent historical fiction books set on the Pacific coast of the Long Beach Penninsula in Washington State. The other titles are "O the Red Rose Tree," and "The Nickel-Plated Beauty." All three titles by Patricia Beatty take place in the same region, within a few years of each other at the turn of the 20th century. There are only a few common characters, so it doesn't really matter what order you read them in. I like to compare these books to the Laura Ingalls Wilder titles. They were quite popular during our Washington State Centennial in 1989, and still get read by students who like historical fiction. It's nice to see a review here by a student who says this is her favorite book. That says a lot. These titles are not on any "top ten" lists, but are certainly worth reading. Beatty has a knack for bringing an unknown part of history to life, and adding adventure, as well as accuarately describing the weather and locale of this region. I recommend this book and the other two titles! (Written January 30, 2001.)
