Helpful Score: 1

This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger is about children - four orphans - in the harshest and more dire of circumstances. It is an epic story of one summer that seems to extend so far beyond the time period it covers. For its horrific events, the story has at the same time an almost idyllic and philosophical feel. The result is a haunting tale of the dark history of the treatment of Native Americans and at the same time of the resilience of children and the joy of creating a family.
