Beyond the Prairie Sunset

This was no dainty, cottony cloud that I'd enjoyed watching as I lay in the grass staring up at the sky. This was ugly and evil, and it sent a shiver up my spine.For fourteen-year-old Claire McKay, the last two years have been a constant struggle for her and her family as they continue to build a life on the unforgiving prairie. But it was not all hard work. There was also school, friends, picnics, a new horse . . . and Caleb.Based on true events, Beyond the Prairie Sunset picks up two years after Miller's debut novel, Beneath a Prairie Sky. The story vividly recounts the challenges faced by those brave pioneers as they tamed wild Nebraska prairie and made a life for themselves.
