Eastward Ho!

A deep story for older kids that will make you think. I couldn't give it a perfect score just because the way everyone treated the heroine was just so annoying and many of them were deliberately provocative of the worst side of her nature. Also, it was annoying that the robust young street minister was so judgmental and perfectionist about wanting to tell everyone under the sun exactly how to live their lives, instead of telling them how to seek Jesus only. I loved Lina and Dalrymple as the leads of the story, though, and enjoyed getting to know them in the story.

The title refers to the slums of east London and the mission work there which the author was attempting to draw attention to.
