Understood Betsy by Dorothy Canfield Fisher
"Understood Betsy" by Dorothy Canfield Fisher is a children's novel published in 1916. When fragile, anxious Elizabeth Anne is suddenly sent from her overprotective city aunts to distant farming relatives in rural Vermont, she faces a world entirely unlike her sheltered upbringing. At the Putney farm, she encounters one-room schoolhouses, maple syrup making, and unexpected freedoms. As Elizabeth navigates her new life among the practical, no-nonsense Putneys, she begins discovering capabilities within
herself she never knew existed. But what will happen when her city aunt wants her back? (This is an automatically generated summary.)
