Description

Another "story for mother culture", from author Karen Andreola, the forgotten value and beauty of home-making fills every nook and cranny of these pages. In Lessons at Blackberry Inn, life is seen through Carol's eyes, a homemaker in the 1930s. Her busy days are spent teaching her children in the morning and canning their bountiful harvest in the afternoons. Guests at Blackberry Inn appreciate Carol's delicious meals served family style on the long table.

When her feet ache or her emotions begin to get the better of her, Carol's husband, Michael, has a calming effect. She is supported by his ongoing devotion. So it's no big surprise that when the pastor of the church asks a big favor of Carol, Michael has a heart-to-heart talk with her about her involvement. She is expecting their third child and he is concerned that she may be already doing too much.

As learning is not limited to the schoolbook, life's lessons impart wisdom to a variety of characters, both young and old, all living in the country village of Appleton.

Karen Andreola is the author of the perennial best-seller, A Charlotte Mason Companion: Personal Reflections on the Gentle Art of Learning. She lives with her family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
