| | Synopsis
|
"After travelling thousands of miles, Dorothy and her family have
arrived in Canada, and are adjusting to their new lives on the
prairies. Things are different than they were in England -even the
small things like food and water have to be worked for -but Dorothy
is excited for the adventure they've started. However, the Barr
Colonists who arrived with Dorothy and her family are getting
restless. Lack of food and other resources have caused many families
to fall ill and go hungry, and the prairie and its weather are
unforgiving. Fire and floods consume homes and supplies, and many
promises made to the Colonists before leaving England have proven
false. Will this colony of settlers have what it takes to put down
lasting roots in this strange new world?"—Publisher's description.
