-Translated into modern American English for better comprehension and more enjoyment.-illustratedThis is a completely rewritten story, not a PDF or OCR version with a lot of garbage characters! If a review mentions that, it is referring to a different copy on Amazon.Lucy is an introspective teen girl living in 1853 New England, one of the eldest in a large family. Everything changes for Lucy when her rich uncle offers to take her to New York City to relax and regain her health, after working her whole life on a poor country farm. But she doesn't go alone - her God and Savior is with her. And as she learns to listen to his still, small voice, she becomes a joyful woman of God, shining her light on all around her. Her internal struggles with sin and life are universal and we can listen in on her conversations - with herself, cousin Helen, beloved brother Arthur, and the unusual and amusing Mrs. Prigott.
