By: Pansy (1841-1930)
Pocket Measure by Pansy is a heartwarming tale that follows the life of Joy, a young girl who faces many challenges and struggles but learns to find strength and faith in the midst of it all. The story is beautifully written, with vivid descriptions that transport the reader into Joy's world and make them feel every emotion she experiences.
One of the aspects I enjoyed most about this book is the character development. Joy starts off as a shy and uncertain young girl, but as the story progresses, she grows and matures, becoming more confident and self-assured. I found myself rooting for her every step of the way, and by the end of the book, I felt like I had gone on a journey of personal growth alongside her.
Pansy's writing style is engaging and easy to read, making it hard to put the book down once you start. The themes of faith, perseverance, and the power of love are woven throughout the narrative, adding depth and meaning to Joy's story.
Overall, Pocket Measure is a touching and inspirational read that will resonate with readers of all ages. It is a story of hope, resilience, and the enduring power of faith, and one that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a heartwarming and uplifting read. Book Description: Three young women are the central characters in this story. Callie and her husband are poor, but they are frugal, spending using God's principles, and they reserve a tenth for God's work. Eva's husband makes more than double what Callie's husband makes, but that doesn't keep them from sinking beneath a load of debt. Even worse, she feels that her husband thinks it's her fault - and she thinks it is, too. She's an inexperienced housekeeper and doesn't know where the money goes. Happy-go-lucky Jennie wants to marry a rich man, so that her married life can be filled with parties, gaiety and pretty things. Will Coleman is poor, and not a Christian, but he's SO gentlemanly and romantic...
