Midnight Blue--Even the Book Cover Itself is Lovely

Midnight BlueMidnight Blue by Simone van der Vlught
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a lovely story about a young farm girl in Holland who dreams of life in the big city and who has artistic talent and a desire to use it. Despite several pitfalls she manages to fulfill her dreams. Not only is the story of Catrin's successes captivating but the story of the development and production of the beautiful blue and white Delft porcelain is fascinating. In addition, the description of the countryside and the means of getting from place to place is enchanting. All in all, a multifaceted, easy to read, engrossing tale.
