A New England Colony and the Eight Baby Friends
Seventeen years back a frontier settlement grows from a chapel to a fort and then to a town. Anita and the seven boys, first white children born there, share birthdays, crafts, and loyalties as the once fragile village becomes a modern city. Anita's absence and return reshape their bonds across years of schooling and travel.
