New Fav
My new favorite male character is now Roger Hamley from Wives and Daughters. He is so kind and yet so timid. I'm not sure that's what I like about him, but he is a very likable character. Also, he is handsome in the movie, but I've heard that the book describes him differently. Which leads me to a grievance. In my school library and in the Burnam Memorial Library such a book as this is nowhere to be found. Alas and aleck. I shall travel far and wide to the next town over at my leisure and hopefully find it there. If not, I shall be forced to buy such a book off the internet someday, but I'm sure that isn't the only way out. Oh dear.

hi MM--I'm so sorry I didn't get back to you sooner...I was having internet issues. My mom, being ever-resourceful, found "W and D" at our local library (Burnham Memorial). It was a four-VHS tape set, each one 75 mins. long. It was done by BBC. I hope you can find it! Also, I would recommend the book. My mom just got it for us from online or something. You can also go to the website that Linda posted earlier.
