Finally the woods gave way to a small clearing. Jessica saw a little wooden house sitting by a creek that was tumbling happily down the mountainside. The wind tossed the tall poplar trees back and forth sending some yellow leaves clattering down through the branches. Jessica held her breath. She loved it already!
Find out what it was like to live high up on a mountainside in Southern Appalachia where kerosene lanterns were lit after dark, water came from the creek and supper was cooked on a wood stove. Run barefoot with Jessica as she explores the woods and streams after she and her family move from the valley, up the winding dirt roads to the cabin on the mountain.
The Cabin on the Mountain is a collection of happy memories of growing up in rural Western North Carolina back in the 1980s. Minor artistic liberties were taken, but every story is true. The Cabin on the Mountain is perfect for cozy bedtime stories, chapter book reading for elementary students, and can be used seamlessly with the Charlotte Mason homeschool method as a living history book.Also in
