Letty, the bright‑hearted girl who once dazzled audiences under the circus tent, has settled into a quieter life on a country farm. When a summer carriage whisks the mischievous twins, Jane and Christopher, to their new home, Letty’s sunny disposition instantly draws them in, turning a simple ride into the start of a lasting friendship.
The children’s arrival is marked by a sweet encounter with Mrs. Hartwell‑Jones, who offers chocolates and a warm seat at her table. As Letty helps the twins adjust to farm life—sharing stories, exploring the garden, and even nursing a minor sprain—her kind nature proves as enchanting as any circus act. Listeners will enjoy the gentle humor of sibling rivalry, the charm of countryside adventures, and the comforting sense that a caring friend can make any new place feel like home.
