The local mill rats
Audio books are something we devour here.  Sometimes they capture all our attention, leading us on a path we never would expect.  Leading to a book list at the library, exploring websites, playing new games.  Such is the case at the moment.  Dressed in their 'mill rat' costumes;pants, suspenders and newspaper boy hats, they are busy sorting spools of thread and planning a way to escape on the train to Canada where children are not allowed to work in a factory.  The historical fiction Counting on Grace  written by Elizabeth Winthrop is the place this new journey began.
