About this audiobook
“I believed it would have been a sin to stay inside when God had sent us such fine weather. According to Pastor Ezra Anderson, sin was the reason we’d got in the dusty mess we were in. The way I saw it, that day was God’s way of letting us know He wasn’t mad at us anymore. Just maybe He’d seen fit to forgive us.”
Pearl Spence has been through more in her young life than most folks could handle. But through it all, her family has been by her side. They may not be perfect, but they love her and they all love each other, come what may. That's one thing Pearl no longer questions.
But the end of her beautiful day signals the beginning of the end of her secure life.Now her family is fleeing their Oklahoma wasteland. Pearl isn’t sure she’ll ever see home or happiness again. Are there any crumbs powerful enough to guide her back to the dependable life she once knew?
The strong narrative voice of Finkbeiner’s young protagonist from A Cup of Dust returns in this gritty yet hopeful sequel, sure to please her many fans.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the 2nd book in the 3 part series, and its a must-read. I have greatly enjoyed reading this book, I am looking forward to reading the 3rd book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked it as much as the first book, though I found the mother’s behaviour ultimately rather odd. Hoping for resolution in the third book. I love this main characters!!
