About this book
Sixteen-year-old Randy Weston has won a five-dollar gold piece for her schoolwork, but deciding how to spend it proves surprisingly difficult. In the summer fields, she talks to her mare Snowfoot and thinks about the education she hopes to pursue beyond the district school. Her friend Belinda has more immediate concerns: visiting relatives, extra chores and the small boy Hi, whose schemes keep the household busy.
Amy Brooks sets this children's novel among friendships, family duties and the wish to learn. Randy's younger sister Prue supplies another view of those attachments when she and Hi set off toward the railway station, hoping to reach Randy in Boston. Their shared lunch and uncertain route give the outing both warmth and suspense. Readers can enjoy the lively conversations while following how school ambitions affect the people who care about Randy.
