Description

May Amelia Jackson captured readers’ hearts in the Newbery Honor Book Our Only May Amelia. Now, after over ten years, Jennifer Holm is bringing this beloved character back in a beautiful way. The Trouble with May Amelia is a gorgeously written story that’s as heartbreaking as it is funny. May Amelia lives in pioneer Washingon State in 1900, and she just can’t act the part of a proper young lady. Working a farm on the rainy Nasel River isn’t easy – especially when you have seven brothers and a Pappa who proclaims that Girls Are Useless. May Amelia thinks she may have finally earned her father’s respect when he asks her to translate for a gentleman who’s interested in buying their land and making them rich. But when the deal turns out to be a scam, Pappa places all the blame on May. It’s going to take a lot of sisu – that’s Finnish for guts – to make things right.
