(3) 4-6 The difficult, weather- and nature-dependent life of farming on the Colorado frontier is the theme of this middle-grade novel centered on twelve-year-old Belle, whose family takes part in the government homesteading program in 1910. Reminiscent of the Little House series, hardships are paralleled with the loving support of family and neighbors struggling and succeeding together. Glos.
