This is Anna Kester's story. She is a friend of Ruth Sawyer, and she avers that this tells what happened to her when she was a little girl on a Hungarian farm, many years ago.
Anna told it to Ruth Sawyer all just as it happened in her own mind, and Ruth Sawyer knew how to make it into a story.
Of course, when Kate Seredy read the story, she knew just how everything looked as it happened, and she made the pictures.
So Anna's dream comes true again, years after, in this beautiful book.
Both Ruth Sawyer and Kate Seredy have won the Newbery Medal.
