by Kathryn Forbes ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 18, 1943
Mama was a Norwegian immigrant, living in San Francisco, and raising her family with skilled tactics. Homely, human, amusing, this story of the Americanization of three daughters and one son, of a raft of aunts and uncles; stories of projects out of which some good must be achieved, of Papa's operation and family tangles and the cat that had to be killed and Christine's revolt and Nels' romance. Good family reading aloud material for stay-at-home evenings.
