Deeply wounded by her embittered mother's lack of sympathy for her aspirations, Elnora finds comfort in the nearby Limberlost Swamp, whose beauty and rich abundance provide her with the means to better her life.

This is a story to be treasured. A friend told me about this book when I was in my late 20's and I fell in love with it. My daughters have all read it and they loved it as well. It is lovingly worn.
