Map

"e;For whoever comes next."e;Wren is fifteen, and this summer there is just one item on the list — with directions. The folded county map has ridden on top of her sewing box all year: Evelyn's penciled route to the homeplace on the hill, the little house Wren has heard about her whole life and never once seen. There's just one problem. Halfway up the hill road, the pencil line stops.So Wren learns the keeper's last lesson: how to read a map — and how to read the land itself when the map runs out. Landmarks and compass roses, a wrong turn that teaches her to stop, sit, and think, and a six-mile walk planned the keeper's way: the plan told, the kit packed, the back-by time promised.Because growing, feeding, healing, and mending were never four different lessons. They were one hand, learning to hold on. This summer Wren learns the fifth way — finding the way there, and the way home.Book Five of Lessons from Nana — the final summer. A warm, wise series for readers ages 8–12. Every book teaches one real life skill.The complete Lessons from Nana series: The Garden (growing food), The Kitchen (cooking from scratch), The Kit (first aid), The Thread (sewing and mending), and The Map (finding your way).
