Okay I love this series on Dear Princess, as it is amazingly therapeutic. I was given this book as a Catholic fundamentalist homeschooler in the early 90s, found it both confusing and damaging AND had a copy in German, to practice that language. Anywaze, I would love to see you take on MORE Rod and Staff books, particularly more by Landis and particularly “Days on the Farm with Annette and Samuel”, which I loathed as a child. “Days on the Farm” was the most perfect example of a very specific and vengeful God. They always had immediate physical repercussions from heaven for their childish transgressions AND got taken soberly to the bedroom to be lovingly spanked and bible-versed at by Mother or Father or both or who knows. Go barefoot against orders? Poison Ivy. Take a snack without permission? Die of botulism. Or something like that. “Be sure your fault will find you out” quoted mother as she sprinkled dirt over Annette’s mangled corpse.

After reading more about her and Rod and Staff I am beginning to wonder if it was more the situation of ” Dear, you are so good at writing. and we are losing control of the young women in the church. The next book you write should be one that tells girls how to be proper Mennonite women . Now this is what you will write. ” of course what would NOT have been said to her would have been “and that way we can have more girls to play with”
