Book Description
for Jacob Have I Loved by Katherine Paterson
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
From the perspective of adulthood, Sara Louise recalls with wit and insight her childhood jealousy of her twin sister Caroline. During her turbulent, self-absorbed adolescence, she blamed her family and friends, the Chesapeake Bay island where they lived, and even World War II for her unhappiness.
