About this book
Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm by Kate Douglas Wiggin is a timeless coming-of-age classic that has enchanted generations of readers since its 1903 publication. When eleven-year-old Rebecca Rowena Randall arrives at her aunts' farm in Riverboro, Maine, she brings with her an imagination and spirit that will transform everyone around her—much to the exasperation of her practical spinster aunts, Jane and Miranda Sawyer. Sent to ease her struggling family's burden, this dreamy, spirited girl finds herself navigating small-town expectations, school challenges, and the bittersweet journey toward growing up.
Wiggin's beloved novel captures the essence of rural New England life with warmth and humor, exploring themes of resilience, imagination, and self-discovery. The fictional town of Riverboro draws inspiration from Hollis, Maine, where Wiggin herself spent her childhood, lending authentic charm to Rebecca's world. Often compared to Lucy Maud Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables, this young adult classic stands as one of literature's most enduring explorations of adolescence and personal growth.
Perfect for listeners seeking nostalgic, heartwarming storytelling, this audiobook resonates with anyone who values imagination, independence, and the transformative power of kindness. Whether you're discovering Rebecca's adventures for the first time or revisiting this literary treasure, her infectious spirit promises an engaging, uplifting listening experience.
