Oh, Left Behind is really sad too. I still love it, though. Usually I don't like sad books, but Left Behind is my favorite Christian serires.

Ummmm..... .....The Vinegar Boy by Alberta Hawse. I read it with my mom a few years ago. I don't read many sad stories though. Sorry!

I've already got the perfect book (thanks to Danae's suggestion). But it's funny 'cause one of my friends is doing a dramatic speech from Vinegar Boy. It sounds like an awesome book.princess_pearl412 wrote:Ummmm..... .....The Vinegar Boy by Alberta Hawse. I read it with my mom a few years ago. I don't read many sad stories though. Sorry!

Dana's Valley is the saddest book I have ever read. It is by Janette Oke.

You know what? I asked on CBH about sad books last year and StrongNChrist suggested Dana's Valley. I checked it out and my sister ended up doing a dramatic speech from it, she got several awards at different tournaments and almost made it to the National competition with that speech.Sapphire wrote:Dana's Valley is the saddest book I have ever read.

So Dana's Valley is a very, very good suggestion. I just didn't feel like doing this year after my sister did it last year.
