Eight-year-old Ruth, one of ten adopted children, recounts the sudden disruption of her stable, predictable lifestyle in the suburban Los Angeles as the family relocates to a rural Welsh village. Her first impressions and gradual integration into life in Wales are described in a humorous but informative way, giving details of farms, castles, historic houses, mines and caves which only an "e;insider"e; could relate. As she finds herself accepted in her new country and culture, she begins to confront the limitations and frustrations of life as a wheelchair-user with a life-long physical disability, but is able to foresee a positive future supported by a loving family and the God in whom she trusts.
