But more is that it is a book of love story, a surprise love story. You won't know who loves who until you get right to the very end. In the book, it is a series of letters, written by an American orphan girl - Judy to her trustee who promises to send her to college. This is a one-side correspondence as her trustee never replies. Lonely Judy expresses all her emotions in the letters. All through the years at college, she grows from a naive teenager into a lively and attractive young lady. She also approaches to reach her dream - to be an author. Of course she falls in love as well. Who does she fall in love with? Read the book and get the answer yourself. Don't be afraid! It is a charming story, quick and easy to read because of the letter format. Besides, you will never forget the lovely drawings of Judy. Get the book and enjoy the fun of reading in English.
