This story takes place in Wethersfield where a girl kit age of 16 goes and lives with her aunt and uncle. The do not know she is coming. Kit goes to live with them because her parents are dead. After her parents had died she had been living with her grandfather, after his death she had practically no family. She sailed of on her way to live with them. When she gets there they had no idea she was coming, they had thought she was on a visit but at the dinner table she told them she came to live there.

Kit's aunt had 2 children, both a bit younger than kit. Since they where pour they had to do lots of things around the house but kit didn't know how to do anything. Her grandfather was part royalty and had servants, she didn't have to do anything around her house when she lived in Barbados. Kit also had lots of beautiful cloth which didn't fit her and wanted to give them to her cousins, but her uncle didn't want that his daughters where those kind of clothes.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading about someones life and house it changes through out the year. I really enjoyed this book because i liked reading about kits life and how it was hard sometimes and good sometimes. To be honest this is the best book i have ever read, and its also my favorite.

  1. Wow, the books sounds really interesting. I noticed a few grammar mistakes, so I think you should proof read it before posting. Otherwise you made the book sound really interesting.
