““Barbara Stechow Harris’s Sixteen Going on Seventeen offers a fresh look at one of the world’s best-loved families, the von Trapps. With an aura of wonder and affection, she recounts her teenage experiences as a performing member of the Trapp Family Singers on American and international concert tours. Reading this engrossing remembrance is like a front-row seat at a von Trapp concert or spending a perfect day with them at their Vermont home.””
