Travels with Aunt Laura — Book 3
Kathryn was staying with the Good family for the summer while her parents were in India. They played. They worked — especially they worked! But as Kathryn and her cousins shelled peas and hoed weeds, Aunt Laura helped pass the time by telling stories of her travels. She had already told fascinating stories of her adventures in Africa and the Holy Land.
Kathryn looked forward to hearing about Europe — about Rome, where Christians were martyred for their faith; the Rhine River, where castles clung to cliffs along its banks; Venice, where “streets” are water and “cars” are boats; and many other facts about unfamiliar foods, customs, clothes, and people.
