Synopsis

In 1954, the Korean conflict is a recent memory and discrimination via Mccarthyism endures. Fourteen-year old Will and his sister are to spend the summer at their Uncle Ed's farm with their aunt while he travels for work. Soon after Will and his sister's arrival, a group of Amish siblings arrive, per Uncle Ed's invite.
Then a 7 year-old Korean- American orphan with polio, Lilly Rose, is dropped off at the farm, per Uncle Ed, inciting the aunt to finally leave.
Six children live alone on the farm, facing harmful prejudices daily.
What sacrifices must Will make to help them survive?
Is he truly responsible for his father's' death as he believes?

À propos de l'auteur

My name is Kim Delmar Cory and, by happenstance, I was born in 1954 which is the same year as the setting of this book. I am a retired educator who lives in Michigan with her husband, two dogs, Mackinac Lee and Murphy (AKA Monkey Butt), and a naughty cat named Thackery Binx. My two adult children and my grandchildren live within a reasonable journey from our home. Upon retirement, I am dedicated to the writing life along with feeding my dogs and cat per their preferences which are varied and often annoying. My husband feeds me so no problems there.My website, www.kdelmarcory.com displays my Mid Grade and Young Adult historical novels and keeps readers updated on my writing accomplishments and school visits. I hope you choose to visit me there.My ankle tattoo, Cacoethes Scribendi, translates as, 'insatiable urge to write' or 'bad habit of writing' from the original Latin.But you probably knew that, right? http: //www.kdelmarcory.com/
