Evaline Ness

Maybe the father should have been clearer. Maybe she should have an additional adult helping take care of her. And where are Thomas's parents? Why do they let him drive around the island on his bicycle? Couldn't she go stay with them? This is just a weird book, and I'm not sure how applicable the message is to children nowadays.

It's kind of a Scottish nursery rhyme. It's not terribly interesting. I wouldn't have sought it out except it won some kind of award.
