Heirloom Rose

By Katie Andrews Potter

Thirteen-year-old Janie Wells wants nothing more than to go camping with her friends over spring break. After all, a camping trip to southern Indiana's Lake Monroe sounds a whole lot more fun than staying home. But when Janie's mother decides that she and her grandmother are going too, the trip takes an unexpected turn.

Soon after they arrive at the campground, Janie discovers a long-hidden family truth-her grandmother grew up in the community displaced by the construction of Lake Monroe decades earlier. Now there's so much for Janie to unravel about this place and her family's troubled past, and it grows even more complicated when she learns that her grandmother is losing her memory.

Over the course of the week, Janie navigates a bittersweet reunion with the past and a tender reconnection in the present, learning compassion and understanding along the way.

Ultimately, Heirloom Rose is a story of a family's heartbreak and healing.
