To Everything a Time — Eleanor Watkins

Written from the view of Alison, the Christian wife of a farmer, the changing of the seasons give a lovely backdrop to a gentle read. The book cleverly interweaves stories of death, teenage pregnancy, and new life and misjudging others.

All strands of a community life work together with the gentle reassurance of a loving God who reminds us that however imperfect we believe ourselves to be, we all have a part to play â€" at home, as well as within our community.
