Nine-year-old Lucy Miller loved to dream about visiting other countries, but from her front porch view in the small Indiana town where she was growing up, flying off to exotic places around the world was just that-a dream.
That is, until a newcomer came to town who would open her eyes to possibilities-and problems-Lucy never knew existed. It was the fall of 1966. Was Lucy's peaceful world about to change forever?
The Front Porch Diaries is a light, charming series about friendship, siblings, growing up, and life in the 1960s. Readers will come to adore Lucy, Eddie, Simone, and all the children of East Howard.
Volume One of the series introduces the reader to the characters and takes you on an idyllic trip back in time, through some captivating adventures-and mis-adventures-of the sort not often experienced today. Volume Two follows the children into Christmas and winter of 1967 with fun, surprises, and one experience that leaves two children in serious trouble. Volume Three has some dangers of its own as Lucy and her friends and siblings explore their world, and Volume Four includes a heart-stopping journey that will leave the reader anxious to pick up the volumes that will follow.
The Front Porch Diaries are chapter books perfect for 4th grade through 8th grade, guaranteed to be clean, wholesome reading that will entertain young readers, build vocabulary, and perhaps open conversations about life in the 60s, people from other countries, sibling fun, and even a few life lessons.
