(3) YA Richly detailed, this historical novel tells of pioneer and author Susanna Moodie's youth in England and her immigration to the backwoods of Canada, where, with her husband, she homesteaded, raised nine children, and still achieved her dream of becoming a published writer. Memorable characters and a well-paced narrative mark Johnston's foray into historical fiction.
