Jane of Lantern Hill
Jane Stuart lives in a rigid Toronto household dominated by her wealthy grandmother and believes her absent father is dead until she learns he is alive on Prince Edward Island. Sent to spend the summer with him, she discovers practical competence, freedom, and a true sense of home at Lantern Hill. Returning to Toronto makes the divisions in her family harder to accept and gives Jane a reason to act rather than merely endure. Fresh, domestic, and quietly triumphant, this novel is made for summer reading and anyone who wants an underestimated child, an island home, parental reconciliation, and belonging earned through everyday work.
