Sweeter than BirdsongBy Rosslyn ElliottDescription:
Westerville, Ohio, 1855: Kate Winter’s dreams are almost within reach. As the first woman to graduate from Otterbein College, she’ll be guaranteed her deepest wish: escape from the dark secret haunting her family. But with her mother determined to marry her off to a wealthy man, Kate must face reality. She has to run. Now. And she has the perfect plan. Join the upcoming musical performance--and use it to mask her flight. Book Takeaway:I hope readers will be encouraged and know that our efforts to serve make a difference. They have effects far beyond what we can see. Why the author wrote this book:I was inspired by the dramatic, romantic story of the real-life Hanby family of Westerville, Ohio. I wanted to share that story of a minister's family and the risks they take for their faith. |
