About this book
Arriving at Westover College, Dolly Alden finds herself surrounded by students who already seem to know one another. Her first hours away from home are lonely, until fellow freshman Elizabeth Newby appears at her door and offers to help unpack. Their talk moves easily from roommates and room decorations to making fudge, giving this college story a close view of the small comforts that begin a friendship.
Mabel Cronise Jones follows the girls through a world of examinations, different academic strengths and the social distinctions that shape college life. The story also carries Dolly and Beth into a summer at the Thousand Isles, with boating on the St. Lawrence, music and photographs sent to a friend. Written for younger readers, the novel offers an account of learning to belong among new companions, while its conversations and domestic details preserve the texture of an earlier student life.
