Set in the Strawberry Capital of the World and America's Antique City, Magnolia: A Wilting Flower is the story of a gusty girl who lost her father on Christmas Day in a little Southern town. Get a glimpse of the past through this coming-of-age autobiographical novel set in the same school setting where Pistol Pete played basketball and was filmed. Share Magnolia's pain, heartache, her coming-of-age struggles, and growing-up pains as she learns some of life's lessons the hard way. Education was important to Magnolia's father, and he left her a symbol of what education meant to him in the little red-plaid booksack he bought for her. Magnolia is raised on fairy tales. Will Prince Charming come? The spunky youngster gets herself and her little sister into some pretty cementing situations. Even as a child, Magnolia wanted to become a teacher. Do fairy tales come true, after all?
