Book Overview

Katy's New Horizons Katy, the twelve-year-old heroine of this story, grows up in the years after World War II. Electricity has replaced the oil lamps and candles of the past. Cars and trucks and tractors are used instead of horses and oxen. The war and the Dirty Thirties are fading into history but their effects are still strongly felt. Katy's new horizons begin with a move to a new farm together with her family in a distant locality. Most of her life is ordinary, like any girl living in her age. Then circumstances arise that demand all the resources that she has and more! Her inner horizons need to expand far beyond her capability. Can Katy rise to the challenge?

About Alice Warkentin

After raising her family of nine children, Alice Warkentin of Cartwright, Manitoba, Canada, started her career as an author by writing her mother's history in story form, in "Are We Home Now?", "Which House is Home?" and "A Home for the Heart" - Granny's Story. Composing life stories for others has been her favorite kind of writing so far, and this is her first fiction story. This book is written at children's level but is of interest to people who remember how we lived in post-war days.
