Jessie's Mountain

Jessie's Mountain by Kerry Madden
Livy Two has always dreamed of becoming a singer, and her decision to run off to Nashville's Music Row is made with confidence-she figures the money she'll bring home will buy the family's house as well as forgiveness for running away. The Nashville adventure is a disaster, though; even her cherished guitar is stolen. Livy Two takes her failure hard, but finds comfort in the girlhood diary of her mother, Jessie. Outraged to discover that young Jessie had dreams now long-forgotten, Livy Two puts the whole family to work and makes Mama's ultimate dream come true.
