It is seen primarily through the eyes of one of the younger children, Marcie, who is five when the story begins, in her last year of high school when it ends. It describes their first years in New Mexico, their journey in search of land in Arkansas, their return to the cotton patch in Texas, and finally their move to the little town of Bernalillo, New Mexico. As Marcie's world opens up, she tries at first to adjust and conform to it, but eventually decides to accept herself and her family just the way they are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-3188471\"\u003eMary Eldridge Ceroni\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/08\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 238\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.94h x 6.14w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781401077297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1401077293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ninth of fourteen children, Mary Lillian Eldridge was born October 17, 1925, in Seagraves, Texas.
