Description
Life has been tough for May and Gus Lavender. Their father's disappearance at sea and their mother's tragic illness have left them with little to rely on. Now, they face a new challenge as they are sent to the Brownlow Hill Workhouse, a place where the poor and destitute are forced to endure hardship and uncertainty. May and Gus must rely on each other to survive the difficulties that lie ahead. The Brownlow Hill Workhouse is a harsh environment, where the rules are strict and the conditions are unforgiving. But for May and Gus, it's a chance to hold on to each other and find a way to thrive in the face of adversity. As they navigate the challenges of the workhouse, they will discover the strength of their bond and the resilience of their spirits. If you're looking for a heartwarming and gripping family saga, this book is a worthwhile read. Holly Green's writing brings the world of the workhouse to life, and May and Gus's story is one you won't soon forget.
