Ten-year-old Birdie Boyer has her heart set on one thing: strawberries. Big, juicy ones, grown right on her family's new farm in the Florida backwoods. But dreams don't sprout overnight, and the Boyers have a long road ahead of them.

Heat, droughts, and cold snaps threaten every harvest. There's the hard work of coaxing a wild piece of land into one that can feed a family. And then there are the neighbors: rowdy, suspicious, and more than ready to turn a small slight into a full-blown feud.

Through it all, Birdie holds on to hope. And slowly, stubbornly, something beautiful begins to grow, not just in the fields, but between families who learn that kindness and neighborly love go a lot further than grudges ever could.

Lois Lenski's Newbery Medal-winning Strawberry Girl has been beloved for generations and is celebrated for its vivid regional detail, warm characters, and quietly powerful message about community and resilience. A gorgeous piece of American historical fiction that children and adults alike return to again and again.
