Todd - Diane Lloyd

. .

Résumé :
Todd is a great story that outlines the hardship many children born in the fifties experienced at a time when children where often needed to help around the home or the family business. While there were many good parents who loved their children deeply there were others who only needed help or felt it their duty to provide heirs or just one more set hands to pitch in. Todd is the storey of two such lonely children who found a way to make up for the lack of love and affection in their lives. It is a story of hard work and courage. Heather was only seven years old when Todd was born but she stick handled her way through their childhood in a way that gave hope and purpose to both their lives. No problem was too large to handle and no hardship to much to endure. One only had to keep the end result in mind and know that someday things would be better. With an uncanny ability to hang onto what was good and endure what wasn't, she never gave up. Her plan was almost perfect! This story takes place in rural Ontario and covers four small communities in part. The towns are fictitious but the behaviour is not. The code of conduct embedded!
