5.0 out of 5 stars
A great new book in the American Diaries series.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Agnes May Gleason: WALSENBURG, COLORADO, 1932 (American Diaries) (Paperback)
Agnes May Gleason is almost thirteen, and she's living on her family's dairy farm near Walsenburg, Colorado, in 1933. Life has been hard for her family since the Depression started, and now Aggie's father has injured himself. When he must go to the hospital, Aggie is left alone to run the dairy with only her ten year old sister, Mary, and seven year old brother, Charles. If only her older brother Ralph hadn't left home! But it's up to Agnes now to make decisions, and pray that everything goes right. I highly reccomend this book.

A story about a girl living on a dairy farm in 1933.,
This review is from: Agnes May Gleason: WALSENBURG, COLORADO, 1932 (American Diaries) (Paperback)
When Agnes May Gleason's father is injured working on the family dairy farm, her mother must take him to the hospital, leaving Agnes charge. Things were already difficult because of the Depression, and now Agnes's parents tells them to dump the day's milk. They can't afford to do that with these hard times, and Agnes decides to disobey her parents and make the deliveries with the help of her little brother and sister. This was an inspiring story about a girl during a difficult time in this country's history and how she overcomes difficulties to help her family.
