About this listen

 An excerpt from the book: "Sure, it's unusual to have an eighteen-year-old mother when you're twelve. But when you're an orphan and she's your aunt and the only mother you've ever had well, as I explained, it had worked out real well.

That's why I got so riled up when I heard Grandpa and Uncle Charlie talkin' about findin' a fella for Auntie Lou!

You see, somethin' had to be done! I couldn't just sit back and watch our special family get broken up. But with Grandpa and Uncle Charlie workin' so hard to get Auntie Lou married off, I really had my job cut out for me.

Then, when that poor preacher came along, it really got complicated.

And maybe you'll find out what I found out about the best kind of family, I mean."

If your someone who believes 100% in what the bible says you’ll love this book. It’s a wholesome story that’s sweet and shades the listener from the negative aspects of this time period. There is good story telling, accents aren’t too bad and it’s soothing to listen to.

Wholesome part 1:

Lovely feel-good factor without any foul language, no violence and no sexual content. A little gem of a book. Downloading the next in the series.

Delightful

Lovely, homespun tale of pioneer folk in the West. The storyline is gentle, yet compelling and is narrated beautifully.
