Product Description

When fifteen-year-old Cissie Brodie loses her parents to cholera, she is forced out of the family cottage & left to raise her nine siblings alone.

Although desperately poor, the strong-willed Cissie determines to build a new home for the Brodies.

It is only a rough stone shelter, but to Cissie & her family it is enough to keep them from the workhouse.

They have friends, but charity cannot always spare them the harsh reality of their struggle & the bitterness of those who wish them harm.

But can love, when it arrives, teach Cissie not to fear the world beyond the dwelling place?
