At breakfast, Mr. Graham drops the bombshell that his niece -- Joan, Jane or Janet, he's not sure which, will be arriving from the west to live with his large family. The news is met with mixed emotions - horror from his wife, resentment from the eldest two daughters and amusement from the eldest son. What will this stranger be like? How will she fit in with her cousins? - Summary by Lynne Thompson (5 hr 8 min)

Unfortunately the recordings are tinny and echoey. If that echo goes sound goes away the readers will be good to listen too. Cannot listen now and I think this will be a good book too.

A delightful story full of lessons in how to live a number of virtues that were woven beautifully into the story! It was difficult to always understand the one Male reader.

Delightful. Refreshing. The storyline might be considered predictable, but the world would be a gentler place if the kindness in this story were a bit more predictable in real life.
