They may not be perfect, but they love her and they all love each other, come what may. That's one thing Pearl no longer questions. But the end of her beautiful day signals the beginning of the end of her secure life. Now her family is fleeing their Oklahoma wasteland. Pearl isn't sure she'll ever see home or happiness again.

"</b> - <i>Historical Novel Society</i> <p/><i>"I believed it would have been a sin to stay inside when God had sent us such fine weather. According to Pastor Ezra Anderson, sin was the reason we'd got in the dusty mess we were in. The way I saw it, that day was God's way of letting us know He wasn't mad at us anymore. Just maybe He'd seen fit to forgive us."</i> <p/>Pearl Spence has been through more in her young life than most folks could handle. But through it all, her family has been by her side.

Pearl's story could have been my own grandmother's. It's as though I tapped into a piece of my own history that I didn't know was missing. <i>A Trail of Crumbs</i> is a beautiful, heart-wrenching tale of grief, suffering, love, and the enduring hope that comes from piecing a family back together. This was one of those books I didn't want to end."-- (12/06/2016)<br><br>"With her trademark narrative intimacy, Finkbeiner returns to the world of Pearl Spence, a heroine already beloved by readers of <i>A Cup of Dust</i>. Finkbeiner's Depression-era canvas is replete with historical authenticity and colored by a voice both erudite and accessible. This coming-of-age story pairs its winsome heroine with a cast of salt-of-the-earth characters who will be welcomed by readers of Harper Lee and Julie Cantrell. <p/>"With a stoic look at faith and resilience in a time of famine, A Trail of Crumbs is a perfect modern-day parable--destined to inspire, challenge, and beguile any who step into its fully realized world."-- (12/06/2016)<br>
