Description
"In the 1940s, an adventurous family moves from state to state, chasing Dad as he chases work. But when tragedy strikes, how will they survive? Quinn Kids on the Move is the second book in Rose Mary Quinn Gabriel’s autobiography series, The Quinn in Me. The adventures continue as the Quinn family adjusts to life in Moon Run, Pennsylvania. When they finally feel at home, they move on from state to state as Dad continues to hunt down work driving a bulldozer. True to form, the Quinn kids find fun and trouble wherever they go! In each new home, they find new friends and even though they may argue among themselves, there will be fist-fighting if anyone tries to come in between them. Rose Mary keeps you right in the moment as the family faces danger, such as burning coal slag heaps and flash floods. Yet at the same time she reveals the joy of living a simple life with a loving and generous family. You will feel every gamut of emotions; joy and laughter, fear and incredible grief as you turn the pages through one adventure after another. Fall in love all over again with the Quinn family as they face life’s ups and downs together. Then as tragedy strikes, the whole family will need to lean on each other in order to survive." --Back cover.
