I have been waiting for this to come out in paperback. Not sure but I have a strong suspicion that this might be added to my personal collection, only to be loaned out.

"Adelaide Shadd was born in southwestern Ontario in the first decade of the 20th century in an all-black town settled by fugitive slaves. forced to flee her beloved Rusholme as a teenager, the place will call to her for the rest of her life. Now an old woman, she lives a quiet existence in a trailer park not far from her birthplace, until her whole world is turned upside down when five-year-old Sharla cody is abandoned on her doorstep. Sharla helps Addy to open a door to her past, find forgiveness, and finally make the journey home again."

I finally read this and I was right it is being added to my personal collection. This was a beautiful story, not full of action or fast moving but a quiet story full of emotion, lessons and love.
