This is a great story by my favorite author. It's a quick read and is hard to put down. If you enjoyed The Solitaire Mystery you should definitely read this. It's not a fantasy like The Solitaire Mystery, and not quite as heavy as Sophie's World. I recommend both of those books, too.

This very interesting book can be read in a day and discussed for a lifetime. I started reading the book, left it on the coffee table, and my daughter picked it up and read it the same day. We have enjoyed discussing its themes; life, love, death, etc. However, we have decided it is really all about hope.
Rated by buyers -
This is a nice, short love story filled with an interesting little mystery and some deep sorrow. Though I feel this book is good for everyone, I think it is still somewhat of a 'chick book' and probably more movingly visceral for people with children. The question the book poses is good, but I think the answer is somewhat obvious.

I'd like to present the book "The Orange Girl" to you. It is playing in Norway and is about the luck to live.
The story is told by a boy and his father. The father died when the son was four years old and after eleven years there appears a letter from the father to his son, which he has written before his death when he already knew that he has to die because of a hard disease.
In the letter the dad sais good-bye to his son Georg and tells him about the search of the Orange Girl. It is the story of a big love. The Orange Girl is Georg's mother.
For Georg this is a perfect journey through the past.
The book is written by Jostein Gaarder. He has written some other books like e.g. Maya, The Christmas Mistery or Sophie's World.
And he got several awards for his books.
In my opinion this is a great book and after reading it you just feel good.
Gaarder shows in his book "The Orange Girl" that every live is like a fairytale.

Jostein Gaarder is a masterful storyteller. One of his trademarks is telling a story within a story, and doing so in a winding, and enthralling way. This book is no exception. My attentionw as caught from page one, and I finished reading the book within three days (a rare feat amidts final papers and exams). It's a short and wonderful read. Of course like Gaarders other books its also very thought provoking. Pick it up!
