Travel inside the paintings of Thomas Kinkade in this delightful collection of eight heart-warming stories of friendship-some adaptations of beloved classics, some original stories of extraordinary lives. Any girl who has ever had a best friend will treasure the adaptations of favorite scenes from Anne of Green Gables, The Secret Garden, Heidi and Little Women. They'll also be inspired by real-life heroines like Harriet Tubman, the former slave who forged a trail to freedom via the Underground Railroad-and Helen Keller, who shared an enduring friendship with her teacher, Anne Sullivan. The friends featured in this volume withstand conflict, separation and the challenges of growing up, emerging as strong models of dedication and devotion for today's young readers. Beautiful spot art and border design by Kevin Burke bring the stories to life and add a child-like touch to the book.

      The work of popular artist Thomas Kinkade (one painting precedes each of the eight stories) is the main appeal of this gift volume. The book comprises adaptations of episodes from four novels, including "Anne of Green Gables" and "Little Women", and four original stories based on the lives of Harriet Tubman, Helen Keller, Sacagawea, and Caroline Pickersgill. The adaptations vary in quality, and the biographical tales (for which no sources are included) are mediocre at best.
