Books with author Zoa Sherburne

Angie Scofield has know that she was unique even as a little girl. She has ESP (extrasensory perception) and that sets her apart from other girls her age. She is not able to enjoy the regular fun things girls do, but there is hope for Angie because she meets a young man name Sam who initially is not aware of her gift. Now that they have to part, the issue becomes whether or not Sam will write her or become one of her fans.

A facile novel which expounds its emotional problems in terms that are too simple for the depth they imply, this takes poor but upstanding Leeann Storm on her first resolute and successful steps away from home. Leaving the Junction, she ascends to the estate beyond the high wall to be governess for Mrs. Kingsley's two little girls and part time secretary for the grown son Dirk, a would-be poet. But sinister motifs overlay the new relationships. Dirk is a sickly, hostile young man, and his mother's son by a former marriage. Mrs. Kingsley is over-protective. Dirk's at first unreciprocated love for Leeann precipitates a crisis that makes him leave home to hunt for an engineering job (his true bent is mechanics) and Leeann, who jockeys between the rich and the poor with phenomenal perception, does much to straighten things out both in her own home and the Kingsley's. In the end she has her man and her position, two achievements which the author does little to affirm as the actual goals throughout the course of her narrative.
