This means that Dad would be proven innocent and be out of prison; Mom would recover from her nervous breakdown. And the whole family--Vinnie, Louise, Allie and Missy, and Glennis--would be together again, living in a big house with a huge backyard and having family picnics complete with badminton nets and hoops for croquet.

When Wanda is at work, Glennis has no one but Skipper, Aunt Wanda's only son, to keep her company.

by Patricia Calvert"It will be a fine war," I assured him, hoping to take that look out of his eyes.... "No, Hadder, it won't be a fine war at all," he chastened me. "It will be a desperate and bloody war, just as most wars are. Somehow, Had, we Scots have to learn to live with the English on this little island.... It must all have a stop." He's soft and foolish and a stranger to me, I realized.... I closed my heart against Leofwin and wondered if a girl had ever gone to war before or if I might be the very first one. * Hadder MacColl, fourteen-year-old daughter of the fiery Highlands chieftain, Big Archibald, cannot believe that her brother's three years of study at Edinburgh could have so changed him that he no longer shares her taste for battle. They had always yearned for the return from exile of Bonnie Prince Charlie, when the clans would rally behind him, rout the English, and win back the crown of his ancestors. Now the prince has landed on the coast, and Hadder's beloved brother no longer wants to fight. Only the honor of Big Archibald drives him to follow the clans. Oh, if only Hadder could go to war! She'd show them what it means to be a child of Big Archibald MacColl.... Patricia Calvert's stirring novel recalls a memorable period and creates an equally memorable heroine.
