Caravan

In the summer of 1957 Annie DeBoer is eight years old and getting ready to travel with her family to South Dakota to shear sheep all summer long. This will be her fourth time going with the family for sheep shearing. In her mind it’s going to be another summer of great fun and adventure and she’s excited to relive the summers of her past. But now she is older and she’s about to learn the first harsh lesson of the summer: she will be expected to take on more responsibility. Put to work on the caravan she is now also responsible for her little brother and sister the biggest challenge of her life. What’s more she’s in for the shock of her life as she is forced to witness things no child should ever be exposed to. For Annie it will be a summer of lessons some more painful than others.
