Personal Review: The Chalet School and Jo (The Chalet School
Series) by Elinor Brent-Dyer
The chronicle of Jo's last year as a Chalet School girl. We experience with
Jo what everybody feels at that certain stage in life the reluctance to grow
up and leave behind a carefree childhood and to emerge from it as a
responsible adult. Jo's last year and she is made head girl, is given the
responsibilities that she loathes and really has to pull up and leave behind
childish antics. There are difficulties all around with Robin's illness and the
middles worse than ever and all this calls for a responsible Jo who can
take command of all the varied difficult situations that the term holds for
her, Jo really has to grow up. I loved this book because I could relate to it
and sometimes I could see myself in Jo's place facing the "change" that at
first seems so horrid yet is the mysterious doorway to the second stage of
our lives.A Gorgeous edition and a must read for all those who don't want
to grow up.
