Scarlet Ribbons
Emma Blair Audio Book

Sadie Smith would love to do the things that other children can do. But she’s had a degenerated hip since birth and cannot walk. On her way to a Dr Barnardo’s home, Sadie is bought a pair of scarlet ribbons by her distraught mother who knows that Sadie will never see her family again...

It is 1927, and Sadie’s operation is a success. She can now walk and run as well as any of the other children, and she even has the chance to start a brand new life in Canada. But for Sadie and Robbie, her fellow orphan, life on the Trikhardts’ farm is far from perfect. They are made to work long and hard, and only her scarlet ribbons and her friendship with Robbie bring her solace. A freak tornado reclaims her freedom, but can she reclaim her happiness too?
