Dorothy is a young girl living during The Great Depression. Her coat is threadbare. She has holes in her shoes. Dinner often consists of nothing more than beans and cornbread. Her mother earns a meager salary at the shirt factory. But, they do the best they can with what they have. Then through the generosity of a school mate, Dorothy is given a gift, which not only meets a physical need, but demonstrates the depth of love others show through giving. This story was adapted from one that the author's mother (Dorothy) told her regarding her own life during the 1930s. Not only does this lovely story teach love and gratitude, but it presents the life many endured during this time period of financial hardship in America.
