Bertie Jenkins has spent forty years serving as a midwife for her community in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. Out of all the mothers she’s tended, none affects her more than the young teenager who shows up on her doorstep, injured, afraid, and expecting, one warm June day in 1943. As Bertie and her four sisters tenderly nurture Songbird back to health, the bond between the childless midwife and the motherless teen grows strong. But soon Songbird is forced to make a heartbreaking decision that will tear this little family apart.

I loved this well written and well acted book! Speaks to this of us who has broken families and reminds we are chosen by God even when it appears we were a mistake. Thank you for this rich history of the Tennessee area too. Highly recommend reading and listening to!

1916. The two-street town of Wallace is not exactly what Ellen Webster had in mind when she accepted a teaching position in Wyoming, but within a year’s time she’s fallen in love—both with the High Plains and with a handsome cowboy named Charlie Bacon. Life is not easy in the flat, brown corner of the state where winter blizzards are unforgiving and the summer heat relentless. But Ellen and Charlie face it all together, their relationship growing stronger with each shared success, and each deeply felt tragedy.

A well done story however I like more happiness and a happier ending. I listen to these for an escape from realities. I will say it’s very well written and I am sure realistic. I recommend this title but like I said I like more unrealistic happiness

Billie Jo has a great deal to forgive: Her father for causing the accident that killed her mother; her mother for leaving when Billie Jo needed her most; and herself for being the cause of her own sorrow. Daddy's too wrung out to help her, and there's no one else to care. So at 14, Billie Jo must heal herself - even if it means tearing up her roots and leaving behind everything she's ever known.

Would you listen to Out of the Dust again? Why?
Listened to this with our kids for American History purposes. This is a very well told story. The characters are well-developed and many moments are dramatic and haunting. This gives children and adults a great view of what it was like to be a child in a family during the 1930s in the dust bowl areas of the US.
