For five years, Birdie Malone has rung the schoolhouse bell in Willow Bend every single morning — through hard seasons and good ones alike. Now a fierce drought has settled over the county, and a vote is coming that could close her little one-room school for good.
As harvests fail and neighbors do their best to hold on, Birdie must find the courage to imagine a future beyond the classroom she has loved for so long. And when Sam returns with news of his own — a carpentry shop and an apple orchard waiting for him back in Hollow Creek — Birdie begins to wonder if her hardest goodbye might be leading her somewhere she never expected.
The Last Bell brings the Tales from Willow Bend series to a joyful, faith-filled close, complete with a homecoming, a wedding in the orchard, and the true story of a president's promise to a drought-weary Arkansas. Birdie's journey comes full circle as she returns to Hollow Creek, near Redbud Orchard, where her own story as a young girl first began in the Tales from Redbud Orchard series — trusting that even endings can be part of God's good plan.
The final book in the Tales from Willow Bend series. Can be read on its own, though fans of Books One through Four will love seeing old friends one more time — and readers curious about Birdie's own childhood can discover where it all started in the Tales from Redbud Orchard series.
Perfect for girls ages 8-12 who love stories of courage, faith, and finding home.
