Maizie, by Linda Oatman High. Hardcover,
published by Holiday House. Although the adults in this family are not good role models
(Pa drinks too much and Ma has deserted her family and run off with another man),
12-year-old Maizie tries to care for her younger sister and apply what little of the Bible
she has been taught in the church she attends with her little sister. This book deals with
some tough issues, including unanswered prayer, and should definitely be read aloud and
discussed rather than just being given to a child. But in certain situations it could be
just the book to open the door to an important discussion. Reading level is about third
grade and up. Was 14.95. Now only 10.45-S.
