  "Interesting story" by crashcutter (see profile) 06/29/10

Fascinating to read about the story of a child at the sanitarium at Warm Springs, Georgia. The sanitarium was a real place. We had the added benefit that one of my former book club members had actually been sent there as a child. The character of the girl, Shreve, is endearing. I found the book very informative.
