The sequel to Sarah, Plain, and Tall, this book is as touching and well written as the original. When mail order bride Sarah Wheaton leaves her home in Maine to become the bride of Jacob Witting, she accepts that her new home is now in the prairies. Alhough she loves her new family, the people and places Sarah left behind in Maine are never far from her mind. Then, a lingering dry spell forces Sarah to take her stepchildren Anna and Caleb away from the farm and back to her home in Maine. Will Sarah be willing to leave the east for a second time, or does her heart remain with her beloved Maine?
The second book in the series that began with the Newbery Medal–winning Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan.
My mother, Sarah, doesn't love the prairie. She tries, but she can't help remembering what she knew first.
Sarah came to the prairie from Maine to marry Papa. But that summer, a drought turned the land dry and brown. Fires swept across the fields and coyotes came to the well in search of water. So Sarah took Anna and Caleb back east, where they would be safe. Papa stayed behind. He would not leave his land.
Maine was beautiful, but Anna missed home, and Papa. And as the weeks went by, she began to wonder what would happen if the rains never came. Would she and Caleb and Sarah and Papa ever be a family again?
