Book report by Haven Fehler on: Lacy Makes A Match by Patricia Beatty “Lacy Makes A Match”, by Patricia Beatty, is a book that girls between 10-13 would probably enjoy reading. “ Lacy Makes a Match” begins with a girl named Lacy who was found in an Indian basket in lacy, fancy, frilly baby clothes back in 1882. She tries to take care of four very picky men; her three brothers and her pa, after her adopted ma dies when she is only 13, and she tries to go to school at the same time. She isn’t getting good grades, and they don’t like her housework. What should she do? Her pa gets her help from town, but still it’s too much work. Suddenly, her oldest brother elopes, which gives her a happy idea: to try matchmaking! The story is about her trying to keep up her grades, run the house, and marry off the other two! This is a very interesting story, in which she has many adventures such as “getting her head cut off” in the circus as a circus trick! Eventually they all marry off, no, that’s not quite true, the last brother you just see riding off into the sunset with... oh I can’t tell who! Will the secrets of her past be unveiled? You’ll have to read it to find out! I would recommend this book because it has interesting characters, a pretty good plot and a nice setting. |
