A Year Down Yonder Richard Peck

The hilarious and moving sequel to the award-winning A Long Way From Chicago...



It is Autumn 1937 and although the Depression has lifted, Mary Alice is leaving Chicago to live with her Grandma Dowdel. Now that her big brother, Joey, has flown the nest, Mary Alice will be all on her own with Grandma - an ominous prospect. After all, Mary Alice is a city girl - and Grandma's hick-town doesn't even have a picture show!

Starting at the local school is tough. Mary Alice is homesick and out of place. Living with Grandma's explosive nature is harder still. But the good times are the best she's ever known, and Mary Alice comes to realise that she and Grandma have more in common than she thought . . .
