A satisfying finale.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
"A Time To Dance: Virginia's Civil War Diary, Book Three" is the third and final installment in Mary Pope Osborne's trilogy. If you're look for fresh excitement and adventures, then you may be disappointed with this story. If you're looking for a continuation of Virginia and her family's life, then you may enjoy it. What kept my attention was Virginia's blossoming love for the theatre and writing - two of my passions. There is a lack of history in this final book. The story ends with the possibility of a fourth installment, since two new members will be joining the family. I recommend.
The end of a great series

Eleven-year-old Virginia Dickens and her family have left Washington, D.C. shortly after the end of the Civil War to move to New York City. While her father tries to find work as a violinist and her brother writes for a newspaper, Virginia spends her days on lessons and helping care for her baby nephew as her brother's wife recovers from the baby's birth. When her brother takes her to a play, Virginia becomes interested in the world of the theater, and soon finds a job working behind the scenes. This book was a wonderful conclusion to Virginia's diary and I recommend it to all readers who enjoyed the other My America books.
