About This Book
A young girl named Beth experiences a winter of small, character-driven episodes in a close-knit community, combining childhood imagination and everyday responsibilities. Chapters follow her games, friendships, seasonal festivities such as a masque and holiday celebrations, a hospital visit, outings on foot and horseback, and household challenges, all tied to themes of growth, kindness, and the gradual return of spring.
