At the end of the nineteenth century, in the small town of Trinity, Kansas, on the edge of the West, fourteen-year-old Eli is newly orphaned. With his mother's funeral barely concluded, the judgmental Reverend Mr. Ellis and his congregation of Trinitarians turn him out of his home. But Eli quickly discovers that he is not all alone in the world as a group of kind townspeople help him find a new home and build a prospering business, becoming not just his friends but his "sometimes" family. John Turpin's ELI, SOMETIMES is charmingly old-fashioned, funny, and heartwarming.
