"Never knowing his parents, eleven-year-old Stewie Little and his brother have been raised on a farm by their older sister...And every day Stewie goes door to door selling fresh eggs from his wagon--a routine with a surprise just around the corner. It's his new customer, Marilyn. She's prickly and guarded, yet comfortably familiar...Marilyn has a reason for keeping her distance: a secret no one knows about...But whatever difficult times lie ahead, Stewie learns that although he can't fix everything for Marilyn or himself, at least he's no longer alone"-- Provided by publisher.
