The Topsy-Turvy Lives of Hattie Kildare

"Hattie Kildare is born in the small Oregon town of Middle Falls in October, 1929 — the same day the New York Stock Exchange crashes. That is just the beginning of the topsy-turvy life she will live. High-spirited and rebellious, she will experience many different lives in that first opportunity. Being born in Middle Falls, she will have others. No matter how badly things go wrong, she will have the chance to fix them. Everything will be all right in the end. If it's not all right, it's not the end."–Back cover.
