Produktbeschreibung
Being the only girl of six children in Texas in the early twentieth century is not easy. Calpurnia Tate's mother wants her to learn things of ladies: learning to cook and sew, behave properly, stop getting into fights and playing the piano. But she enjoys going to observe nature and then collecting specimens to show her grandfather, the only one interested in the wanderings of Callie. What's more, he will give her a copy of The Origin of Species and a notebook to apply the scientific method to her comments. But this is not all that Callie observes around her, her family is also living small epiphanies. Some brothers fall in love and they break her heart, others will not stop getting into altercations and another do not want in any way to kill the turkey for thanksgiving ... A novel soft and charming, hilarious at times, which is to captivate readers of all ages.
