Ginny is a rich girl from Toronto who dares, against her family’s wishes, to elope with Danish immigrant named Marty Polsen to his homestead in Alberta. Ginny faces many challenges on the homestead such as learning how to cook, coping with homesickness, being chased by a bear, and a difficult childbirth that nearly kills her. With the support of both her loving husband Marty, and her dear friends, Ingrid and Gina, Ginny perseveres.

This delightful tale continues to captivate readers of all ages with particularly strong appeal to teenage girls and senior citizens.
