| |  | | | In Brief
"For Papa, the fulfilled promise of a fresh start on his own homesteadis close to a religious experience, which narrator Zoe and her younger sisterare eager to share, but Mama's quiet at leaving her parents' Illinois home for the solitude of the prairie casts a pall on the family's optimistic spirit.To help reconcile her to their new life, Papa and the girls plant two withering, maverick dandelions on the roof of their sod house--flowers which, Mama remarks, may 'just die of loneliness.'" (Bull Cent Child Books) "Kindergarten to grade three." (SLJ)
| | | | From The Publisher
Embarking on a new life, Zoe and her family journey west to the Nebraska Territory in the 1800s.
When Zoe and her family arrive at their claim, nothing distinguishes it from the miles and miles of surrounding prairie. Even after they build their soddie, the home can't be seen from any distance. Zoe has never seen Papa so happy or Mama so sad. But when she takes a trip to the small prairie town with Papa, Zoe sees something that might make a difference to their new soddie, and to Mama's life, too. 11 X 9.
Author Biography: EVE BUNTING lives in Pasadena, California.
GREG SHED lives in San Diego, California.
