Up a Road Slowly

What happens inside the heart and mind of a young girl journeying slowly up the road to womanhood? Irene Hunt, author of Across Five Aprils and No Promises in the Wind, gives us a glimpse into the life of Julie-in both happy times and hard times... Julie would remember her happy days at Aunt Cordelia's forever. Running through the spacious rooms, singing on rainy nights in front of the blazing fireplace. There were rides in the woods on Peter the Great, and races with Danny Trevort. Maybe best of all were the precious moments alone in her room at night, gazing at the sea of stars. But there was sadness too-the painful jealousy Julie felt after her sister got married, the tragic death of a schoolmate, and the bitter disappointment of her first love. Sometimes it all seemed like too much to handle. Julie was having a hard time believing life was fair. But she would have to be fair to herself before she could even think about new beginnings...Hunt, Irene is the author of 'Up a Road Slowly', published 2004 under ISBN 9780425202050 and ISBN 0425202054.
