Book Description
The strict and unquestioning obedience encouraged by Mrs. Lippett has shaped the children of the John Grier Home into passive individuals, leaving little room for initiative, responsibility, curiosity, inventiveness, or courage.
Sallie McBride, Judy Abbott’s former classmate, is appointed superintendent of the orphanage and begins to see the dreary institution from within. She might never have accepted the position if her politician suitor had not mocked her ability to take responsibility for 113 orphans.
Told through Sallie’s letters, Dear Enemy follows her efforts to challenge outdated attitudes and transform the orphanage into a healthier and more caring environment. A sequel to Daddy Long Legs, the novel explores leadership, independence, education, and social reform.
Dear Enemy is available in Lebanon at Oro Library, with delivery to all regions.
