Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Percy's Holidays
Lucy Ellen Guernsey · 2025
64/100
👎 Skip It
There is real warmth in Percy's journey from chronic worry to faith-grounded trust, and the explicit biblical framework will resonate with families who prize classic Christian literature. But the Victorian prose and didactic pacing will genuinely challenge most modern children, making this most workable as a guided homeschool read rather than independent reading.
