In 1925 Colorado, 14-year-old Ida Bidson dreams of becoming a teacher, but she knows it won’t be easy. When the school board closes the town’s one-room school, threatening to keep Ida from finishing eighth grade and moving on to high school, it looks like her dream will never come true. Then she and her classmates come up with a plan for a secret school - with Ida as their teacher!

I homeschool my kids, and we have a segment entitled, “Book Club”, where we listen to audiobooks, and discuss the chapters that we’d listened to, on said day. I really enjoyed watching their reactions to certain parts; and they always had plenty to say about the characters, whenever it was their turn to speak! They’d even shared what they thought would happen in the next few chapters, to specific characters, whenever we’d end the time on a cliffhanger! Awesomely heartfelt story!

Wholesome coming-of-age story

The narrator’s voice was not my favorite but eventually I learned to like it. She spoke clear and tried to make characters voice distinctive.

Her and Tom friend ship !!
