About

Move away? Sell the farm? Where would we go? Life as she knows it is about to end for quiet and shy eleven-year-old Ginny. First her beloved grandmother dies, then she learns her family will be moving from the farm where she's always lived to the Weaver Creek cotton mill in search of a better life and a regular paycheck. The move means leaving behind her friends-including her best friend and cousin Annie-as well as her school, her town, and everything she knows. Ginny fears what may lie ahead but ultimately learns that change can mean new opportunities and that new friendships can lead to broader perspectives. Set in Central North Carolina at the turn of the nineteenth century, Finding Your Place teaches young adolescents how facing life's challenges builds confidence, enabling us to find our place wherever life may lead.
