TWO BRIDGETS

This is one of those competent books with good Americana material which somehow doesn't seem to come alive. The story is based on presumably authentic letters written in childhood by a little girl of long ago who had the courage to go with her sick father to a far frontier, and to send back reports to her mother back home in York state. Her great grand-daughter had been named for her -- but it was only when she heard the story and read the letters that she could be reconciled to her name. Pelagie Doane has made charming illustrations for the story.
