""The book was quite interesting; Rebecca overcame many obstacles. I chuckled at times and cried at times. The book is full of adventure."" Julia Hornback, Retired Administrative Assistant ""This book has joy and happiness, sorrow, hardships, relationships, life and death. Through it all there is faith! I like that it's not about a famous person or celebrity, it's about a common person we all can relate too. Jesus is there for everyone. Even if you don't believe, you will!"" Kerry Namanny, Sabbath School Teacher ""I enjoyed this book very much. It was well written and should be a good lesson for those who haven't had to live as the folk did in the early years of the 20th century. I knew Rebecca; she was a very dear friend and one of the sweetest people I have ever known."" Sterling Trice, Church Elder
