The Carousel Painter by Judith Miller

Lovely book!

I really enjoyed this read! Of course, I already knew a good deal about how Carousel animals and how the horses are made, so it just made this book even more fun! Ms. Miller told this story with a great deal of detail for not only the horses, but a woman working in a man's arena.
Carrie is a lovely portrait of a woman fighting to follow God, cope with friends, and man.

Carol :)



Without the means to support herself after her father dies, Carrington Brouwer receives the opportunity to use her artistic talent at her friend's father's carousel factory. But the men at the factory are not happy that a woman has been given the very desirable job of painting the elaborately carved horses. When mishaps occur at the factory and jewelry disappears from the home of the factory owner, accusations swirl. Is the handsome young factory manager truly Carrie's ally or will he side with those who believe she should be fired?
