Charming story from the late 1800's of a little girl who believes she has caused her sister harm (albeit accidentally). Prayer is central, life is simple, and family is the solid core. (Injured sister recovers completely)
Unfortunately, I found this book to be rather dull. There was no rising action or climax to the book. It was simplistic and showed what the lifestyle was like in the 1800's.
Not one I would recommend for leisure!

This book was given to my mother for Christmas 1921 by a family friend, James Nicely who had receives in from an aunt at Christmas 1903. The book is in fragile condition but nonetheless readable.
