Caddie Woodlawn.
I read this book over and over as a girl.
This one!
I loved it. I first discovered it when I was something like 45 years old and I still loved it. It is like a more mature version of Little HOuse on the Prairie.
SECRET GARDEN and Little Princess by Frances Hodgeson Burnett. Caddie Woodlawn. Little House series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. Calico Captive. Witch of Blackberry Pond by Elizabeth George Speare. Strawberry Girl (by Lois Lenski?)
You might also enjoy eight cousins and Rose in Bloom, both by Louisa May Alcott. Pollyanna. Plain Jane. Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.
Loved Eight Cousins and Rose in Bloom!
An old fashioned girl
Maybe Fannie Flagg books?
Yes, Fanny Flagg, Red Bird Christmas is wonderful!
Coldcomfort Farm
Really? I wouldn’t say this was anything like Anne of Green Gables. Maybe like Anne before her life in Avonlea! ?
What Katy Did.
Homecoming, by Cynthia Voigt. Stunning. And the first in a series, if you find it appealing.
I loved this series! I read it in 5th or 6th grade I think. I always think of Dicey and her brothers down by the boat dock behind their grandma’s house (?). I started reading again last year but was too busy to get into it.
What about the Little House on the Prairies series? It’s wondeful :).
Little House on the Prairie series!
Have you tried A Girl of the Limberlost by Gene Stratton-Porter? 1909 publication. Loved it. Lots of mid-west nature loving!
I loved that book as a child. Still remember it vividly.
The rest of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s books (of which there is sooo much) including her journals.
Emily of New Moon trilogy by LMM
Adore Emily!
Little Women maybe
Read the rest of the series. There’s a lot, and you can get them all for free on Kindle. Little women and the others in that series. What Katy Did, plus two more in that series. Modern but similar themes The Great Gilly Hopkins by Katherine Paterson.
The Betsy-Tacy books have that same feel. Also, for a modernized version, The Penderwicks has adventures and sweetness like that.
A couple of years ago I reread Betsy-Tacy series and loved it just as much as I did when I was a kid!
Stratton
Limberlost book
Try I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith.
Have you read all of the books in the series?
The Girl from Johnny Cake Hill
Five Little Peppers and How They Grew
That’s what I was about to suggest!
The Orphan Train
Little Women
LM Montgomery wrote another series that I haven’t read but might be worth looking at-Emily of the New Moon (double check the title)
Little House on the @Prairie.
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
Daddy Longlegs It is a series and this is the first book. Written in 1912 by Jean Webster. I stumbled across it and it is so cute. About an orphan girl who goes to college and writes her benefactor, whom she doesn’t know, letters about her day to day life.
Louise Harris I didn’t realize there was a movie. Now I am going to look it up. ☺️☺️
Louise Harris I love both of them so I will definitely look for it. Thanks!!!!
Emily of New Moon for sure – I loved that one more than the Anne series. The Homecoming series by Cynthia Voight and A Tree Grows In Brooklyn are others I read around the same time.
Emily of New Moon- L.M. Montgomery (Same author different series)
Roller Skates.
What Katy did.
