Celie, the youngest sister, is a gifted writer. She dreams of becoming a journalist, but she knows that she will have to work hard to make her dream a reality. She writes for the school newspaper and works on her own short stories in her spare time.
The Lepine Girls of Mud City is a story about the power of family, the importance of education, and the strength of the human spirit. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
