Book Description

’A time to be born, and a time to die,’ Cassie heard the voice at her husband’s funeral intone. A time to be born she could understand. Even now the child, hers and Rob’s, struggled within her body. Young, eager, optimistic, Rob and Cassie Quinn had joined the bands of immigrants whole and hungry and wooed by the promise of ’the cheapest and also some of the best land in the world’ were converging on the vast Northwest Territories. But a time to die, Cassie couldn’t comprehend. At least not until their children and grandchildren grew content in the fulfillment of the dreams she and Rob had for them! ’A time to weep, and a time to laugh,’ the voice continued. Her heart felt as empty as the vast sky overhead. Would she ever laugh again? What dreams are left for Cassie and her unborn baby after her laughter has died? Paper.

Life is hard in the Canadian town of Wildrose. Mothers are left childless; children are left motherless. Will a lost woman accidentally stumble upon her Scottish dream? Will Dovie and Dulcie find happiness in their old age? Glover's continuing series develops a different set of Wildrose residents in each book, each of them more endearing than the last. Glover manages to maintain a sense of humor in contrast with the harshness of life in the Canadian bush, which will make the reader love these characters that much more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cosy Characters to Keep You Company on a Cold Day, February 26, 2004

Katherine H. Benson (Rome, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Time To Dream: Book 3 (Wildrose) (Paperback)

Wildrose and the characters of Ruth Glover are cosy and warming company on a cold winter's day. The guidance of God through the Psalms is apparent in the story of a bereft pioneer widow who has left her husband in a cold and lonely grave on the prairie to find her home in the Saskatchewan bush. Will Dulcie and Dovie manage to find a good husband for Anna, the Wildrose community's substitude for a doctor? How does Digby's infected wound fit into God's plans? The lives of these and other clearly drawn characters will keep you running back to the library or to Amazon.com to search for more inspiring books in the Wildrose Series.
