The sequel to Sarah, Plain and Tall.
Sarah has married Papa. The summer brings a drought and lots of dust to the plains.
Sarah takes the children to her old home in Maine to escape the harshness. Papa remains on the farm to rebuild the burnt barn. Caleb worries that they will not be a family again.
Beautiful writing.
