This Newbery award-winning classic novel about the power of overcoming hardships has been a classroom favorite for over sixty years.
Birdie Boyer and her family show a great deal of mettle as they struggle to raise strawberries in poor soil on their farm in rural Florida. They are constantly tested by droughts, grass fires, and worst of all, constant fighting with neighbors whose wandering livestock eat their crop.
