The Tender Years

The Tender Years is the first in the four-book A Prairie Legacy series by Janette Oke. This book returns to the little town of the Love Comes Softly series. This is the story of  a young girl who is stuck between going with the popular crowd or standing firm in God.

Virginia Simpson is the daughter of Drew and Belinda Davis and the granddaughter of Clark and Marty. When Jenny Wood comes to town and picks Virginia for a friend, Virginia is ecstatic. But is this the crowd she should be with? And what will happen after a tragic accident that will force Virginia to grow up quickly?

I loved this book because, although it had some of the same wonderful characters like Clark and Marty Davis, there were also new arrivals. I plan to read the rest of the series. I would recommend this book for ages 10 and up due to the implications of swearing by certain characters.
