Orphaned and completely alone, she found herself living with the Howards, a falling-apart family with a falling-apart farm. Now, just 14 years old, Maggie is already responsible for all of the housework, a great deal of the farm work, and the care of the Howard's four-year-old daughter, Lizzy.Maggie is meant to stay on the farm for seven more years, but then how would she ever find her sister again?

A Sky Black with Crows
A compelling adventure story!In the early 20th century, an English doctor exposed the desperation of the people of the outports of Newfoundland and Labrador. The doctor's name - Wilfred Grenfell - soon became synonymous with one of the greatest missions to the poverty-stricken in North America. The Grenfell mission was the early headquarters for the doctor's work. Thousands of fishermen and their families had no access to medical care, despite the harsh conditions of the fishery and life along the north Atlantic shores.This book dramatizes this time and place and the Grenfell cause, through the story of a feisty teenager, Katie Andrew, whose family fishes the Labrador waters each summer. It's the spring of 1913, and Katie and her family join her father in the tiny settlement of Fox's Cove. The fishing life is tough and demanding, and as autumn draws near, Katie's father is lost at sea. Katie's mother stubbornly refuses to leave the outport, and waits for him to return even when all hope is lost. The tragedy is compounded when Katie's entire family falls ill and her mother dies. Katie awakens after her illness in the orphanage run by the Grenfell mission.
