The Story of a Child Margaret Deland

In this novel, we will find out what it was like to grow up in late nineteenth century America in the confines of what, on the surface, appears to be a normal family. But no life is without conflict. Only by overcoming their major conflicts can the family prove that it's the ties that bind are always the strongest. Even the oddest family members have their moments at center stage in an effort to come to the aid of the rest of the family in this most difficult of changes. Deland's ability to establish engaging and exciting characters remains unmatched to this day, and as a result this book stands out as a very significant piece of American literature.
