Janice Day at Poketown

In the sleepy hills of Poketown, life revolves around a weather‑worn cottage that has watched generations come and go. The Day family—hard‑working but often bemused by their own habits—fills the air with the rhythmic chatter of chores, pipe smoke, and the occasional sharp retort. Jason Day, a lanky farmer more inclined toward idle contemplation than tilling the soil, drifts through his days while his wife Almira juggles water pumps, stubborn children, and the promise of a boarding girl’s allowance.

Into this ordinary rhythm steps Janice Day, a bright‑eyed youngster whose curiosity often outpaces the town’s slow pace. As she navigates the tangled garden, the creaking farmyard, and the gossiping neighbors, Janice discovers that even a modest hillside community holds surprises, from hidden talents to unexpected responsibilities. Listeners will find humor in the dialect‑rich dialogue and heart in Janice’s earnest attempts to bring a little order—and a lot of adventure—to her family's everyday life.
