Cross Currents The Story of Margaret, to give it its full title, is a captivating tale of resilience and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child, penned by the beloved author of Pollyanna. Margaret Kendall, the young protagonist, has enjoyed a life filled with love, wealth, and privilege for her first five years. However, an unexpected accident during a visit to New York City leaves her alone, forcing her to navigate the challenges of survival while her mother frantically searches for her. This poignant story not only highlights Margarets courage but also sheds light on the harsh realities faced by working children at the turn of the last century. Following this journey, Cross Currents is succeeded by The Turn of the Tide, which chronicles Margarets growth as she leaves New York behind.
