Life on the Prairie


Once Upon the Prairie

 


Life on the Prairie

 Rylie

 Rylie is a ten-year-old writer.
She uses her stories to make her brother’s life brighter.
Her brother, George, has gone to fight in the Great War.
Rylie prays daily the war will be no more.
Her family and she know George is not a fighter.

Family, friends and neighbors dread the knock at the door.
It could mean the family’s soldier is injured or more.
George does safely return at war’s end
Giving Rylie, her family and the world time to mend.
Everyone must try to understand the pain the soldiers bore.

  

Rylie: the Imaginative Girl took first place at the Heart of America Christian Writer’s Conference 2014 Writing Contest in the children’s story division.

Please note this blog posts the first and third weeks of the month.
