Shy, careful, and always told what to do, nine-year-old Elizabeth Ann has never been allowed to try, much less to fail. Then everything changes. Sent from her city life to live with country cousins in Vermont, she discovers a world of fresh air, hard work, kindness-and a new name: Betsy.
Under the steady, loving guidance of the Putney family, Betsy learns to churn butter, drive a wagon, make friends, and even face a one-room schoolhouse with courage. With every challenge, she grows braver and more capable, until she finally understands the most important lesson of all: she can trust herself.
Ani Fraser's warm, accessible retelling preserves Dorothy Canfield Fisher's timeless themes of self-reliance, family, and quiet confidence-perfect for modern readers and family read-alouds.
