(3) 4-6 Arie Mae, twelve, wishes for "my own true friend." She writes letters to her cousin Caroline, but the letters go unanswered. Then Tom moves to town from the city, and Arie Mae finally has a partner in adventure. Set in North Carolina's mountains in the 1920s, this novel exploring friendship and country life is rich in regional dialect and a sense of place.
