Lucy Tucker has been on the streets of Chicago for 50 years. Why
won't she come home? Fifteen-year-old Cindy worked long days beside
her migrant worker family in Michigan's sugar beet fields in the
early 1940s-the "war years"-until she met a dashing young man from
a traveling carnival, bringing some joy and fun into her
hard-scrabble life. But a tragic twist of fate-and a dead field
boss-sent the two young people on the run, leaving behind family
and everything she'd ever known. Lucy Tucker, the crotchety old bag
lady from the popular Yada Yada House of Hope series, is a veteran
of the Chicago streets and not about to give up her independence,
even as she approaches her 80th birthday. Until, that is, a young
displaced woman with her gentle ageing mother and a dog named Dandy
seem to need her-unsettling the secretive Lucy, who doesn't let
anyone get too close. But just when it seems her past is catching
up with her to bring her in out of the cold ... Lucy disappears
again. How these two tales intersect and intertwine between past
and present gradually shines light into the dark corners of Lucy's
murky past. But ... why won't Lucy come home?
In this beautifully illustrated treasury, Dave and Neta Jackson
present the true-life stories of fifteen key Christian heroes. Each
hero is profiled in a short biography and three educational yet
exciting and thought-provoking anecdotes from his or her life.
Ideal for family devotions, homeschooling, and more, this inspiring
collection includes stories from the lives of Amy Carmichael,
Martin Luther, Dwight L. Moody, John Wesley, Samuel Morris, Gladys
Aylward, and nine others.
