Home In Stead
by Cindy L. Clark


Annie loves her hometown on the prairie. She has beautiful things, dear friends, and plenty to do. But her father’s dream comes true when he secures their family their own homestead in the wilderness of British Columbia, and Annie must leave her beloved town behind. The journey is difficult, and life in the wild is different and strange. As Annie meets new people, explores her new surroundings, and faces new challenges, she has to wonder: what does it take to make a home?


Cindy L. Clark has spent forty-five years working with children. Home in Stead, her debut children’s book, was inspired by her own family’s homesteading in Rose Prairie, BC. When she isn’t writing, she enjoys reading, drawing, and painting. She lives in Drumheller, Alberta, with her husband, Ron.
