But the reality is that she and her family are living through the Depression one grim day at a time. The Kittredges' boarding house brings in some money, but it may not be enough to keep them from losing their house. Kit struggles with an endless list of chores that keeps her constantly busy at home. But she knows that there are people who have lost even more than her family has because of the Depression, and she looks for ways to help. To her great surprise, Kit discovers that along with hard times come good times, too. Book jacket.
