(3) 4-6 When Wavie's mom dies, an aunt she never knew takes Wavie back to Conley Hollow, the Appalachian town of poverty and unrealized dreams that her mother struggled to escape. Despite Aunt Samantha Rose's greediness and cruelty, new friends help Wavie adjust. Wavie is a strong and determined character, and the kindness of her neighbors helps soften the abuse and heartache she endures in this ultimately hopeful story.
