~AMAZING!~
I thought this book was absolutely wonderful. It's very, very well written and it makes you feel as if you are a part of the story. It explains the hard times Kelley goes through and how she handles them. Bravo!

You get what you pay for
As a thrifty college student, I'm inclined to finding my books for the lowest price online and while I don't expect them to be new or anywhere close to perfect, a decent enough condition is expected especially when the book's status is "good". However, I found it a little disappointing when I opened my package to find my "good" book missing parts of the binding and that is was being held together ...

Meet Chadwick and His Chesapeake Bay Friends 1 review
Priscilla Cummings
Tidewater Publishers, 1999
Meet Chadwick and his C hesapeake Bay Friends
We bought all of the Chadwick books years ago when our grandkids were young. Somehow (of course, nobody knows how it happened), "Meet Chadwick" got lost in the shuffle. The oldest grandson wants the set to pass on to his kids. We were glad to be able to replace it still.
Thanks for having it! It arrived quickly and in fine condition.

Autumn Journey1 review

Dutton Juvenile, 1997
Very Realistic Fiction
I first read this book as I read it to my fifth grade class, because Priscilla Cummings was visiting our school. I had no idea how touching this book would be. When I would stop reading for the day, my fifth graders would beg me to give them just 5 more minutes. At the end of the book, several of my students and I got teary-eyed during the reading. There was no end to the great discussion ...

Saving Grace (Junior Library Guild Selection)6 reviews
Priscilla Cummings

Wonderful! Inspiring! Magnificent!
Saving Grace, by Priscilla Cummings, is one of the best books that I have ever read! My mother always talked about going through the Great Depression and I would sit there and say, "Yeah yeah yeah..it's over now so drop it, ok?" But after reading this book, I see now what it was really like to go through the Great Depression. I found after finishing the book that I couldn't stop thinking about ...

Chadwick's Wedding1 review

Chadwick's Wedding
This was a gift for my grandchildren. They love all the Chadwick books and this one is no exception. They interweave a lot of envirnmental and wildlife information into the story and the children learn lots of information without realizing they are learning.

Chesapeake ABC1 review
Priscilla Cummings
Tidewater Publishers, 2000
A wonderful abc book
I checked this book out of the library and now plan to buy it for my children. If you live near, have ever lived near, or have ever visited the Chesapeake Bay, you will find the text and artwork enchanting. The rhymes for each letter are clever and the illustrations are wonderful. In fact, anyone who lives on or visits the water (it doesn't have to be the Cheasapeake Bay) would find a ...

Great Read Aloud
I just borrowed this book from my husband who teaches 6th grade, and I devoured it in one weekend. It is a good story that reminds me of 'On My Honor'. It deals with loyalty, death and friendships. The end was slightly predictable and I felt it was missing some resolution between the main charater and the mother he was working for.
I think this would be a great read aloud because it moves ...
