The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate
This is a book by Jacqueline Kelly. It`s about a girl who lived in the begining of the 20th century, Calpurnia Tate. She wants to be a naturalist like her grand-father, when she grows up. But, she has to learn how to cook, how to sew..... like every girl in that time. She starts to learn about nature with his grandpa while her mother gives her lessons. She isn't good at anything her mother wants to.
This book tells how she learnt, it tells about her family and friends and how life was at that time in Texas.
I loved this book because I thought it was different and very interesting. I totally recomend it.
