Summary
Polly Milton, a 14-year-old country girl, visits her friend Fanny Shaw and her wealthy family in the city for the first time. Poor Polly is overwhelmed by the splendor at the Shaws' and their urbanized, fashionable lifestyles, fancy clothes and some other habits she considers weird and, mostly, unlikable. However, Polly's warmth, support and kindness eventually win her the hearts of all the family members. Six years later, Polly comes back to the city to become a music teacher.

Story easy to follow over time while long distance driving. Characters were interesting in their chronological development over time. Well read.

Charming story with a moral lesson, classic themes of love, class distinction, poverty vs. riches, and a gentle essence of feminism as it should be - strong, good, intelligent, kind women who are independent and able to take care of themselves while remaining feminine- that is this author's ideal.

What a pleasant book to listen to. Written in true Louisa May Alcott style, the characters are lovable and you will find yourself rooting for a happy outcome from the start. Jeannette Selig reads with a dreamy captivating voice. Very well done.
