From the publisher

Having Poppa home fills Addy’s heart with happiness, and moving to a boarding house brings a new special friend – one who encourages Addy to always stay hopeful for the future. Then Addy enjoys the victory of having her idea chosen for a fair fundraiser, where a friendship is born, and the answer to a riddle brings a wonderful surprise. But will the rest of Addy’s family be reunited before the New Year? The second book in Addy’s stories is richly illustrated in full color and includes a peek into Addy’s world in 1864.
