"This is a fun story about a family from Sweden who moved to the U.S. It has a very religious part of the story as Papa is a minister but I enjoyed it very much. And I believe God is an imaginary friend. Also read Papa's Daughter but not Mama's Way"
"This book was given to me by sister who has gone on to meet our Lord. She gave it to me while I was carrying my daughter. I read it and named my daughter from one of Mama and Papa's children. Very good book. Full of inspiration."
"Dawn gave me this book to read while recovering from surgery. Could be the drugs I was on, but I had a hard time getting into this story at first, but did enjoy it. It is sortof a cross between Sound of Music and the Unsinkable Molly Brown."
"I only got 100 pages in. This is an I Remember Mama knockoff. She uses staccato sentences to create an immigrant-y feel. The story is ok. I bought it for the gloriously detailed red, green and yellow cover. Very dala horse, very folkloric. The story itself is almost charming but not quite. It presumes but does not provide cuteness."
