Summary: A Diamond in the Dust
Comment: I recommend this book to anyone. Even though it is listed under “young adult”, anyone interested in historical fiction will enjoy it, and it can also be read aloud to younger children.

Even though the book is primarily about 16 year old Katy, the other characters in the book have detailed personalities that make you care about what happens to them, too. The details that are included of this time period also add interest to the story. You don’t typically think of what people ate, the clothes they wore, and the way families interacted in other historical time periods. There’s a lot of emotion throughout the book which includes tragedy and hardships, but Katy hopes and works toward a better future. It all makes for a realistic and exciting story.

The author has a web site... where you can read the first chapter to “Diamond in the Dust”.
