***2017 Los Angeles Book Awards Runner-up*** ***2017 Hollywood Book Festival Honorable mention*** ***2017 Summer Indie Book Awards Honorable mention*** In post-war Canada during the late 1940s, Elly McGuinty and her younger sister, Dot, are newly orphaned. The girls are sent to live with their grandparents in a small prairie town. Still grieving the loss of her parents, Elly chafes at the responsibility of helping care for Dot and struggles to find a place for herself in her new life. When a travelling circus comes to town, Elly's desire for new experiences leads her, Dot, and new friend Stammer-a shy boy mocked for his halting voice-down a path where lives are altered forever.
