As a child my favorite was the Nancy Drew series mysteries. and Girl of the Limberlost by Jean Thornton [Gene Stratton-Porter]. The Nancy Drew series were about a teenage girl who solved mysteries. The Girl of the Limberlost, her name was I think was Elenor, her mother hated her, she blamed her for her father’s death. But Elenor remained a happy girl inside as well as outside and continued to love and respect her mother. She spent lots of time in the forest and raised many successful flowers which were rare and got her enough money to go to college and become someone other than the girl from the swamp.
