Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm

Rebecca is a bright, outspoken girl with a head full of ideas and a heart that refuses to be quiet. When her mother sends her off on a stagecoach to stay with her aunts, the Sawyer sisters, the journey itself becomes an adventure—she watches the countryside rush by, clutches her pink parasol, and fills the ride with chatter about nightgowns and dreams. The bustling coach and its colorful passengers give a lively backdrop to her eager anticipation of a new home.

At the brick house in Riverboro, Rebecca meets the practical, no‑nonsense aunts who run a busy household, and she quickly discovers that life there runs on recipes, chores, and a strict schedule. Yet her imagination and love of stories push her to find ways to brighten the days, whether by turning chores into games or sharing tales with the other children. Listeners are drawn into her spirited attempts to fit in while staying true to the exuberant, curious spirit that makes her unforgettable.
