The Canning Season
by Horvath, Polly
In The Canning Season, Polly Horvath tells the tale of a strange thirteen-year-old girl named Ratchet Clark.
Ratchet is sent to live in Maine with some distant great second-cousins for the summer so that Mom can primp and fuss without Ratchet and "That Thing" around.
Once Ratchet warms to her new friends Aunt Tilly and Aunt Penpen, as well as another teen girl Harper, the world starts to shift into a sometime brutal, sometimes fairytale world full of dark humor and philosophical twists.
