Item Description...

Cities scare Maggie McGilligan, so does change. But Welcome is Maggies town, her own beloved small-town, USA, full of its unique, familiar cadence and beat of train whistles, harvesting and woodland creatures. Maggie realizes that some change is inevitable now that her widowed mother, Mara, is about to marry Bartholomew Britt, a rugged carpenter from the Yukon. When Mara and Bartholomew inform her that they might have to sell her home and refuge, Tara, the floor of Maggies world begins to tilt. Mara and Bartholomew, while remodeling Tara, arrange for Maggie to stay with Bartholomews sister, a well-known painter who livesin Paris! Not only that, his sister is a nun! A convent in Paris, France? New friends and mysterious happenings in both Welcome and Paris unfold for Maggie as she catches the rhythm of life happening. . .a long way from Welcome. Ages 10 and up.

Great Title  Jul 8, 2007
The title caught my eye as I was looking for books to recommend to my students, and I had high expectations for this book. After all, part of the action takes place in Paris, France, one of my favorite cities. I lost interest after the first two chapters, and I suspect that was because the plot seems forced. Events did not appear to flow naturally from one to another. The descriptions of Paris are wonderful and the respect for art and artists is laudable.The premise is sound, but the execution awkward.
