Dear Librarian, Lilly Gray Corbett loves living on Troublesome Creek. Her favorite thing to do is wander the woods rescuing injured critters. Helping to mind her younger sisters and brother can be a pain though when her mother, Copper Brown, the local midwife, is off catching babies. Her mother collects babies like other women collect biscuit tins or china tea cups. Copper Brown feels guilty for the time her profession steals from her family. Should she give up the job she loves? Even though she provides her family with the best of care? One seemingly innocent summer day, everything Copper and her daughter hold dear is threatened by Copper's hired-girl's ill-fated decision to bring a stranger to the creek. STILL HOUSE POND, my fifth historical novel set in the mountains of eastern Kentucky in the late 1800's, delves into the lives of women of the era and the societal sacrifices they were often forced to make.
