Hattie Big Sky Audiobook (Free)

This Newbery Honor winning, NY Times bestseller celebrates the true spirit of independence around the American frontier.

For some of her life, sixteen-year-old Hattie Brooks continues to be shuttled from one distant in accordance with another. Sick and tired of being Hattie Here-and-There, she summons the courage to leave Iowa and move all by herself to Vida, Montana, to demonstrate through to her past due uncle’s homestead state.

Under the big sky, Hattie braves hard weather, crisis, a cantankerous cow, and about Hattie Big Sky her own hopeless hand on the cookstove. Her mission to produce a house is usually championed by new neighbors Perilee Mueller, her German hubby, and their kids. For the very first time in her existence, Hattie feels part of a family, locating the strength to operate against Traft Martin’s strategies to buy her out and against raising pressure to be a “devoted” American at the same time when anything-or anyone-German is suspect. Despite daily trials, Hattie continues to work her uncle’s state until an unexpected tragedy causes her to search her soul for the true meaning of home.

This young pioneer’s story is lovingly stitched together from Kirby Larson’s own family history and the sights, sounds, and scents of homesteading life.
