About the Book
Trina, at the age of twelve, inherited a life of responsibility. Trina’s life was much as the average child until she became responsible for caring for an invalid mother and two younger brothers. The family had been much like the average family, until suddenly an automobile accident took the life of Trina’s father and left her mother invalid. Trina’s mother’s mind rejected the fact that her husband was dead, and she, with her disability from the accident could no longer cope with reality. Mr. Boggess, a dear friend of the family, became a dear friend of the children and was successful in getting social security payments of the family from their father’s year of work. He agreed, at Trina’s insistence, to keep the family at home for a while to see if they could cope. Read and enjoy the story, and please, do not stop until you have read the surprise ending.
