About the Book
This is the story of a little girl in a small Appalachian mountain town during the depression. She had no relatives in the area except her mother and dad, yet she captivated an entire community with her comic and precocious antics. There was never a dull moment in Hayesville, North Carolina, when this little Pixie was Winding Round the Square. Go with her to meet the people she loved, and travel back to another time and place. It was the hardest of times, and yet the best of times because the spirit of the mountain people made it so. You will feel that you have lived these times with them.
