Primrose Squarp simply knows her parents did not perish at sea during a terrible storm, despite what the other residents of Coal Harbour believe. For all practical purposes, Primrose is an orphan, and there's no great clamoring of prospective adopters. After realizing the impracticality of continuing to pay Miss Perfidy (a mothball-scented elderly lady) an hourly wage to baby-sit her, the town council places her with Uncle Jack, who reluctantly takes her in. Primrose does warm up to him, but her true sanctuary is a local restaurant called The Girl on the Red Swing, where everything--including lasagna--is served on a waffle, and where the proprietor Miss Bowzer offers a willing ear.

Through a mixture of eccentric humor and probing philosophy, author Polly Horvath makes Primrose's search for peace and understanding a most memorable one.©2001 Polly Horvath; (P)2002 Random House, Inc., Listening Library, an imprint of the Random House Audio Publishing Group Action & Adventure Growing Up & Facts of Life Literature & Fiction Family Life Growing Up Fiction Humorous Fiction Social & Life Skills Witty Comedy Primary Education

I loved it!!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Liked that the sweaters seemed to knit the whole story together. Maybe the only dislike was the constant explaining of the older foster mom

She just had an amazing attitude and complete understanding of human nature.

Any additional comments?

I have listen to this book several times. The combination of prose and narration are delightful. The author artfully portrays the beauty of regular people and the beauty of faith.

Delightful
