As they look forward to their father's homecoming, the Weems children (Gentle's Holler) anticipate the return to their old life. Instead, they find themselves working twice as hard to keep the family together in their Appalachian mountain home. Told through the attentive eyes of Livy Two Weems, Madden's thoughtful story of this determined, devoted family continues.
