Six young lads and a sister, motherless. It was so sudden and unexpected. How would they cope now that Mom was gone? Who would take care of them? Tragedy struck hard around Linden, Alberta during the twenties and thirties, and some of their cousins had also lost a parent or even siblings. But the children were young, resilient and surrounded by caring relatives. This true story of how they grew up during years of drought and poverty and even invented plenty of their own fun will make inspired reading. 189 pages.
