Title: A sweet book marred by racial prejudice
Review: This is the one book written by Gene Stratton Porter that should not be read to children. The book contains many of the same themes as The Girl of the Limberlost ,with a intelegent heroine who is in touch with nature. However, the book reflects the strong racial prejudices that were present when it was written. One of the central story lines deals with the threats of immigrants, especially the Japanese. I do not recommend reading this book as a first look at the author's works. To enjoy it you must be able to detatch yourself from the racial commentary and understand that it was typical of that time-period in America. Ignoring the sections dealing with the Japanese, it is quite a sweet book. Unfortunately, the prejudices will make many people so angry that they will not be able to finish it.
