Like the author, I too wanted to marry Prince Charles and have a pony. Where we differ is I wanted to go to Radcliff, not Oxford. But then, I would have never met the prince I guess. Oh, well. Turns out it was a good thing.As an older woman of a certain age, I can oh so relate to the author. Yes, I wanted to play at Wimbledon. After all, my uncle did. But, I didn't. I did, however, win some championship matches. And such is life for all girls. And such were the memories it caused me to recall with a warmth.This is a delightful, well-written short story about a young girl's dreams and how reality sets in, bringing with it that bittersweet fact of life. The adventures she has are a fun read. They're adventures we can all relate to to one degree or another. This is a story all girls (of any age) will enjoy.-- Susanna K. Hutcheson
