When her family, hit hard by the Great Depression, loses their farm, Hannahs father decides its time for a fresh start. Destitute but inspired by grand plans and dreams of a better future west of Lancaster, he loads his family and what little they have left into their covered wagon.They settle in North Dakota, hundreds of miles from any Amish community. Hannahs mother does her best to be a good wife, supporting her husband as they try to build a new life in a wholly unfamiliar place.Things arent going quite as Hannahs father had imaginedhis visions of success are shattered by the reality that his knowledge of farming in Lancaster isnt of much use in Midwestern soil.
