Naomi
by Berniece RabeThe fortune-teller had said that Naomi would die before her fourteenth birthday, and the fortune-teller had a habit of being right. Was there any way for Naomi to avoid her fate? She tried, Lord knows. She had her mother to tell her to peel the potatoes thin, to work hard, to waste nothing-- for that would win her a husband, and getting married was the only future a girl could hope for. Naomi took pains with her peeling. She tried working hard and making herself marriageable. She even hitched up the nervous new horse for her brother Abe. Maybe that way God would notice her and extend her time on earth. But nothing turned out the way she planned, and that birthday loomed closer and closer. In the end it was visiting nurse Sarah Mitchell who showed Naomi that there was more to life than just avoiding fate, that there were more services for women to perform than just making thin potato peels. In this realistic novel of a Missouri farm in the 1930's, author Berniece Rabe brings to life a family of real people facing real problems and introduces us to original thinker Naomi Bradley, who blunders her way toward a fateful birthday. And beyond?
