Description
Strawberry Girl 60th Anniversary Edition by Lois Lenski. Life in the Florida backwoods can be tough. For Birdie Boyer and her family, it's a challenge to make their new farm prosper. They face heat, droughts, cold snaps, and even rowdy neighbors who might start a feud. But with hard work and determination, they'll learn to overcome these hardships. The land is theirs, but so are its difficulties. Birdie Boyer must wait patiently for the strawberries to ripen, while her father advises her to "don't count your biddies 'fore they're hatched, gal young un!" The journey to a successful farm is not easy, but with each passing day, the Boyers will discover the value of perseverance and community. This edition celebrates 60 years since Lois Lenski first shared Birdie Boyer's story. With its timeless themes and engaging characters, Strawberry Girl remains a compelling tale for a broad range of readers.
