The Lark on the Wing

Kit finally has recognized that—no matter what—she wants to sing. In this Carnegie Award winning sequel to The Lark in the Morn, seventeen-year-old Kit, once again, is up against her practical cousin Laura, who has helped in the raising of Kit and her three older brothers. Well-intentioned but as clueless as ever with regard to Kit, Laura has better ideas for her than a musical career. Following wise advice, Kit decides to bide her time and enter secretarial college while studying singing on her own. Doing secretarial work for her remote, scholarly father opens a new door for relationship and understanding between them, and, when life abruptly changes, Kit is ready to stand firm.
