Before Dorothy

by Hazel Gaynor

ISBN: 9780008518721

The greatest journey is the one you least expect... Long before Dorothy visits Oz, her aunt, Emily Gale, sets off on her own unforgettable adventure much closer to home... When news reaches Kansas that her beloved sister has tragically died, Emily Gale must become a mother overnight. Her sister's orphaned child, Dorothy, desperately needs a home. But Emily doubts her ability to fill her sister's shoes; her life on the barren Kansas prairies is no place for a child. On the unforgiving plains, Emily's courage is endlessly tested. The prolonged drought and relentless dust storms threaten to destroy everything - including her home and her marriage. Can Emily overcome her grief and let Dorothy heal her heart? From the promise of Chicago in the 1920s to the harsh beauty of the Kansas prairie during the dust bowl of the 1930s, this is a story of family, duty and one woman's journey of self-discovery.
