Publisher Description: Vision of the Heart, Book 2: Jennie's Story continues the saga of Susannah and Anthony Colby and their family in the New World. They are joined by Jennie Miller, a young orphan found and "purchased" by Anthony to assist Susannah with the children. This book, told through Jennie's eyes, describes life in New England in the early 1630's, as their settlements grew and spread. Life was hard. Religious bigotry, cruelty and heartache also came across the Atlantic with the settlers. Yet, there were moments of unbridled joy, as they followed their strong faith in God and scratched out a living. Young Jennie has many questions about her past and her ancestry. She must also learn the ways of her new family and their community. And, as she grows up, she also learns that love can be complicated. Will the answers to the questions about her past destroy her future? |
