Growing up in poverty during the Great Depression was hard, but for young Norma Brenneman, watching her parents' unhappy marriage disintegrate was even worse. By age thirteen, Norma was virtually on her own, making decisions without anyone to guide her. Would she choose the path of her parents, or was there a better way?
Based on Norma's memories and diaries, this is not just a personal story, but a fascinating look into childhood in the 1920's and the Mennonite community in Brutus, Michigan.
