About this listen

Helene was 15, living with her family in Berlin. Her great grandfather, a high-ranking aristocrat left France in 1788 and moved with the family’s wealth to Germany. They had lived in Berlin ever since. In late 1897 her world was shattered when the doctor said: “You have TB!” This was an almost certain death sentence. She looked forward to a great inheritance but now she had TB. Would she live to have a wonderful life or die in her youth? Her father, Herr Quandt, found a school in northern Italy, near Milan, that took aristocratic girls with lung diseases. Many returned home after three years at Mama Henney’s Boarding School for Girls in good health. Both the climate and the environment of study seemed to help healing girls of TB. Helene, her sister Eva and her best friend Bette embarked on a three-year adventure to school in northern Italy. This is their story of: life and death, joy and sorrow, Illness and health, leadership and revenge. Three girls would begin at Mama Henneys in 1898 but in 1901 only two would return to Berlin. This story is based on the recollections of the author’s grandmother and is based on real events. This book is about 30 pages of standard 5 ½ by 8 ½. Teenage girls love this story! Dedicated to my grandmother known affectionately as Mutti Drama & Plays Education
