A classic that I first read at age 11 and have read countless times since, even as an adult with a 12 year old of my own. With the experience and knowledge of an adult, I read this book in a different way. I see Harriet as a bit of a groundbreaking for 1965 children's literature. There's nothing lady-like or frothy about Harriet. She's butch and independent and confident and has dreams and ambitions of her own. I often wonder what Harriet would be like as a 50-something adult today. A great read!
