	Favorite Resources for Catholic Homeschoolers - Caddie Woodlawn by Carol Ryrie Brink
		Caddie's father was the grandson of an English Lord, but as his mother was from the lower classes, his father was disowned and the family grew up impoverished.
		Caddie's mother still does have an influence on her daughter and over the course of the story (in which Caddie is 11 years old) Caddie begins to develop a sense of what it means to be a lady, despite her rough ways.
		This is a delightful collection of additional stories about Caddie Woodlawn and her family (and one additional story as explained in the introduction that doesn't quite belong).

	Review: Caddie Woodlawn
		Caddie's family lives in the more settled territory of Wisconsin, however, and she and her brothers seem to spend their time playing in the woods and visiting the local natives rather than working at laborious chores all day.
		Caddie's father decided to use Caddie in an experiment--he would let her "run wild" with her brothers to see if that improved her health; all the other girls in the family would be raised "properly" by their mother.
		Caddie and her two brothers careen from one adventure to the next, in a style that feels very much like the memories of a favorite relative--sometimes random, but mostly enjoyable.

		While Caddie's mother encourages a high level of civility in the rough wilds of western Wisconsin, her father is permitted to allow Caddie to grow up running around with her brothers because of concerns of a sister who died of consumption.
		Caddie's bravery (when warning her Indian friends of a white men's attack), kindness (spending her entire silver dollar to cheer up on her motherless classmates), and eventual understanding (of her pesky little sister's loneliness and her own need to be a mature young lady in her own way) make this an inspiring book.
		Caddie doesn't want to grow up to be a lady, but her father talks to her about how important ladies are and that she doesn't have to be a "silly,affected person with fine clothes and manners whom folks sometimes call a lady", as he says in the book, but a wise, understanding, and strong woman.
