When Cora sends Lucy into the hills to act as scribe for the mountain people, she is repelled by the primitive conditions and intellectual poverty she encounters. Few adults can read and write.Born in those hills, Cora knows the plague of illiteracy. So does Brother Wyatt, a singing schoolmaster who travels through the hills. Involving Lucy and Wyatt, Cora hatches a plan to open the schoolhouses to adults on moonlit nights. The best way to combat poverty, she believes, is to eliminate illiteracy. But will the people come? As Lucy emerges from a life in the shadows, she finds purpose; or maybe purpose finds her. With purpose comes answers to her questions, and something else she hadn't expected: love. Inspired by the true events of the Moonlight Schools, this standalone novel from bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher brings to life the story that shocked the nation into taking adult literacy seriously. You'll finish the last page of this enthralling story with deep gratitude for the gift of reading."--Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Singing schools $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing persons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Scribes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Literacy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Adult education $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Poverty $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Kentucky $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Appalachian Region $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a School fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 96 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516015003.0 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430021547.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417015842.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409040127.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012019.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314022053.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305020900.0 952 $l EYPC755 $d 20240117011420.0 952 $l AKPC906 $d 20231118010035.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111010738.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025011706.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012022528.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010023544.0 952 $l MOPB553 $d 20230826010251.0 952 $l RNPC397 $d 20230805012541.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629014715.0 952 $l XHPD657 $d 20230524010854.0 952 $l STPC124 $d 20230418020027.0 952 $l TZPC572 $d 20230316010948.0 952 $l GKPC851 $d 20230228020835.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201022208.0 952 $l KHPB566 $d 20230126011732.0 952 $l VQPC384 $d 20230114015610.0 952 $l ENPC715 $d 20221216010041.0 952 $l HEPB765 $d 20221012010138.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063611.0 952 $l PGAX715 $d 20220519103642.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220507011342.0 952 $l KQPC446 $d 20220412010314.0 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20220401022511.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20220308011146.0 952 $l XEPE697 $d 20220202021706.0 952 $l BZPC851 $d 20220129114233.0 952 $l WQPA215 $d 20220112171902.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215025423.0 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20211123010136.0 952 $l SKPC094 $d 20211005010413.0 952 $l TXPC862 $d 20210929010750.0 952 $l KTPC296 $d 20210917012635.0 952 $l AYPB546 $d 20210916010029.0 952 $l NVPB663 $d 20210914010148.0 952 $l VCPD034 $d 20210831011159.0 952 $l UKPD911 $d 20210831010705.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20210831010435.0 952 $l SZPC124 $d 20210828024013.0 952 $l BSPB851 $d 20210828011450.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20210824012718.0 952 $l RGPA371 $d 20210824012038.0 952 $l HNPC845 $d 20210821010334.0 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20210818010105.0 952 $l EFPB605 $d 20210810164809.0 952 $l YLPC314 $d 20210803013747.0 952 $l BLPC611 $d 20210729010412.0 952 $l FMPC224 $d 20210727010532.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064056.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713013832.0 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20210630013527.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20210615010734.0 952 $l ESPD725 $d 20210611010156.0 952 $l SWPB124 $d 20210604011452.0 952 $l VHPA334 $d 20210603021019.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20210601010406.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20210527010230.0 952 $l EJPD605 $d 20210522104014.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20210522010303.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20210511011628.0 952 $l JCPC145 $d 20210505134045.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20210505010432.0 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20210504020031.0 952 $l RFPC397 $d 20210504014457.0 952 $l VWPC964 $d 20210504013102.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20210504012438.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20210430010420.0 952 $l LBPB837 $d 20210427025805.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20210427011232.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20210427011059.0 952 $l VFPB334 $d 20210424010338.0 952 $l VBPC034 $d 20210413010055.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20210402014154.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210402013750.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210402010645.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20210326010921.0 952 $l BKPC251 $d 20210325133208.0 952 $l JMPC081 $d 20210319010146.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210316010332.0 952 $l VOPB384 $d 20210316010157.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20210312010149.0 952 $l FFPC194 $d 20210306015424.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210304015206.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210304010356.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20210302012239.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20210302010205.0 952 $l SVPC124 $d 20210217145909.0 952 $l RQPC397 $d 20210216010244.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20210216010158.0 952 $l ZVPB675 $d 20210213145405.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1D9E71D66DC911EB9F745E2831ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
