Naneta remembers that she was very strong-willed by the age of eight. She also remembers that her mother took her to her Grandfather Emilio’s house, where she had to learn about life in the great outdoors. There was a lot of work to be done! Back then, she was known as Marieta, the city girl who had to be taught everything about living on a farm, from milking cows, to wearing clogs, harvesting fruit, sewing, keeping the goats safe, and more. Summer is over, and Marieta has found her place on the farm with her grandparents and her aunt. Now, she must prepare for school. It’s not easy to wake up super early to walk to school, especially after having worked all afternoon on the farm. Marieta loses her way to school, but luckily, her friends Blanquita, Juanito, and Jaime are with her on her travels.
