This is a story of a family in the early 1900s-a time when the anxiety of World War I was running high, the suffrage movement was in full swing across the country, and many families struggled to cope with a bleak and troubling outlook.
In her trademark storytelling style, author Marilyn June Coffey beautifully paints the portrait of a family, who despite the woes of the world outside, fills their home with love and warmth, along with the excitement of new opportunites for their future.
