Publisher's summary

As the Travillas winter at Viamede, Elsie's birthplace, Lily, the newest member of the family, is born. Upon the family's return home, Molly is seriously injured while rushing to greet her cousins. Later Elsie and her childhood friend Lucy share a pleasant summer together in the mountains.

The entire family is thrown into turmoil, however, when a carriage accident threatens the life and sanity of Grandpa Dinsmore and Aunt Enna, and Violet is burned with a troublesome secret. Everyone in the family is thrilled as young Elsie blossoms under the warmth of new love, but sorrow strikes as Lily is gathered into the arms of the Good Shepherd despite all the efforts to save her life.

Originally published in the United States, 1850; (P)2004 Blackstone Audiobooks

Add more Elsie Dinsmore stories to Audible

Very enjoyable series but unfortunately this was the last one on Audible. There would be many listeners if they added more books from the Elsie Dinsmore series to their audio book line up!

Such an encouragement to read

I love a well written story that edifies Jesus my sweet Savior. This story does that with great care. The story is also so honest as to our hope in Him and the cost of living in the world. So fun to follow Elsie Dinsmor through her life to meet those she lives and to grow to feel like you’re a part of her dear family. I wish more of the story was read bed Marguerite Gavin, she did a great job bringing the characters to life. Will have to pick up the series and complete it on my own.
