Publisher's Summary
Fans of Grace Livingston Hill's The Enchanted Barn will thoroughly enjoy the story of Cornelia Copley, whose plans to finish college and get her degree in interior decoration are thwarted when she is unexpectedly called home due to her mother's illness. Heartbroken at the interruption and not understanding why her father can't see how important her education is, Cornelia pours her heart out to an older woman on the train who kindly assures her that "no one can take a daughter's place when there is trouble".
Cornelia soon finds there is plenty of trouble: Her mother has had a breakdown and is in a sanitarium; her father has lost his job and taken a lower position; and her brother Carey is going with a wild crowd. Up til now she's had no idea that the family has moved to a dreary house in a poorer part of town and that they all had been making sacrifices for months to keep her at school. Her plucky younger siblings have been doing their best, but the entire family is overwhelmed. Very soon, Cornelia must marshal all the talents and drive that made her an exemplary student to help revitalize her family. She finds she can't do it alone, and she rediscovers her Christian faith to help her along.
